Razor’s Edge Connector

September 19, 2017 By //  by Nancy Ouimet

Razor’s Edge Connector
The Razor’s Edge Connector includes approximately 2 km of new trail between the Razor’s Edge and Quaite Valley Trails. The construction of this northwest connector will direct users off McConnell Ridge prior to its approach to the TransCanada Highway. The purpose of the connector trail is to increase public safety by moving people away from the busy highway and back to the trailhead via a new single-track trail. Building this connector is an important step in Alberta Environment and Parks recognizing Razor’s Edge as a designated trail.
 
Upcoming Trail Building Sessions:
Saturday, Sept 23       Meeting time 10:00am and 1:00pm
Sunday, Oct 8             Meeting time 10:00am and 1:00pm
Saturday, Oct 14         Meeting time 10:00am and 1:00pm
Sunday, Oct 22           Meeting time 10:00am and 1:00pm
Sunday, Oct 29           Meeting time 10:00am and 1:00pm
 
Above sessions will run from 10:00am-4:00pm. We ask that you meet the Crew Leader at the Quaite Valley Gate either at 10:00am or 1:00pm. You are welcome to leave the project at any time. No sign up required.
 
Meeting Location: Park and meet by Highway 1 next to the Quaite Valley Gate.

What to bring: Supportive footwear, gloves and bear spray, and if you haven’t already filled out the Volunteer Agreement Form this year, here it is.
 
If the weather doesn’t cooperate on one of the above trail building sessions, we’ll post the cancellation on the CTA and CAMBA websites and Facebook pages.

This partnership project is being carried out by the Friends of Kananaskis and our Canmore Trail Alliance program, and Canmore and Area Mountain Bike Association (CAMBA).

For time immemorial Kananaskis Country has connected people to the land and each other.
We acknowledge the Iyhare Nakoda (the Wesley, Chiniki, and Bearspaw), the three Nations of the Blackfoot Confederacy: the Pikani, Kainai and Siksika; the Tsuu T'ina Nation, Metis Nation Region 3 and the Kootenay - the traditional stewards and trail builders who continue to reside, learn and care for this exquisite natural and cultural landscape.
We dedicate ourselves to move forward in partnership in a meaningful way.
