Legacy to Re-open!

The Bow River Chapter would like to announce that the work has been completed to a standard that would allow access to Legacy Island starting Saturday - August 17th!

Please note that the island is "Use at Own Risk" and
that as the access area is not fully consolidated we request that people use only 4X4's for the time being!

Also work is not completed so please remain on the managed roads only!

If people start to circumvent the berms, the chapter may look to close the island again until proper barricades can be installed to keep people on maintained roads only.

Thank you,

Bow River Chapter - Trout Unlimited Canada
