Banff National Park’s reply

Skiers on Spray River West(file photo) in Banff National Park

“Thanks for catching this Bob – the Goat Creek information is indeed a bit confusing. We have updated the page that will hopefully clarify some of what you mention.

At this point tracksetting is scheduled for the Spray East and West (a loop of approx. 12km from the Spray Trailhead behind the Banff Springs Hotel) as conditions permit once the bridge construction is complete (around Christmas). Tracksetting beyond that has yet to be determined and we’ll post it here as soon as we have that information.

Thanks for being a great ambassador to XC skiing in Banff National Park and helping us out here in particular. We are updating our maps as well.”

Here’s the link to the updated page http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/pn-np/ab/banff/ne/neuf-news.aspx

They’re teasing us by saying “Tracksetting on the Goat Creek trail is to be determined.”

Thanks to BNP for the reply and clarification.
