Stormy Weather and High Wind Events
Be cautious when walking on forested trails when the weather turns stormy and wet. Trails can be slippery and winds can dislodge branches, or cause unstable trees to fall, during, or shortly after a storm. Let others know where you are going and when you expect to be back.
Fluctuating River Heights
Seasonal rains and spring runoff can cause flooding in some low-lying areas around local rivers. Please maintain a safe distance when waterways are flowing high and fast; and only go as close as you feel safe to do so.
For the Puntledge River Walks, be aware that the Puntledge River Generating Station will sound a siren to indicate when the water level is about to change rapidly. Promptly move away from the river area when you hear the siren.
