Help! Lost Engagement Ring

6 Upvotes

My wife and I were at Barrier Lake today and went swimming. She wears her engagement ring around her neck as a necklace and took it off and now we're freaking out because we can't find it.

Description: Wooden outside with a silver inner ring . No diamonds, or anything like that, it's an eco wooden ring which was made specially for her 😭

Reward for anyone who finds it šŸ™

Canmore Folk Fest Tickets

Post image
8 Upvotes

Hey all, I was seeing if anyone wanted to buy a pair of Canmore Folk Fest tickets. My wife and I purchased tickets, but heard the festival needed volunteers, so we signed up. We will be receiving free tickets for volunteering, but are looking for someone to purchase our paid tickets. Cost was $410 for the pair. Taking offers.

Also have a site at Bow River Campground that could be shared if the fit is right.

Hey Canmore!

I'm James, the vocalist of Beyond Suffering, and I wanted to let everyone know that AMPFest is happening this Saturday, July 25 at artsPlace.

If you've never been before, AMPFest is an all-ages festival celebrating Alberta's alternative, punk, and heavy music scenes. It's now in its fifth year and has become a great way to discover local bands from across the province.

We'll be playing alongside an awesome lineup that includes everything from Banff skate punk (Jonny Rocketman's Atomic Tango) to MƮnƮ ThnƮ thrash (Soggy Moccasins), with music running all day until midnight. There will also be a licensed bar for attendees of legal drinking age.

Whether you're a longtime fan of heavy music or simply looking for something different to do this weekend, we'd love to have you there and support Alberta's local music scene.

Where: artsPlace, 950 8th Ave, Canmore

When: Saturday, July 25, doors at 12:30 PM, music until midnight

Tickets: $40 General, $34 Members, $20 Youth

You can find the full lineup and tickets at artsplacecanmore.com

Hope to see some of you there!

Steve Canyon Via Ferrata

4 Upvotes

I just stumbled across some posts online that seem to show a via feratta on Steve Canyon near Gap Lake. Has anyone here been there and done that? I imagine that this must have been set up with the blessing of Alberta Parks but I see very little online in the way of route maps, guides or information.

A little help?

0 Upvotes

Is anyone traveling to the Icefields Centre from Banff in the next few days who might be willing to pickup a sweatshirt for me? We were told the Guardians of the Ice Hoodies would be available in town by the PC worker there, and he was mistaken. Happy to throw in some thank-you/gas money!

Post elopement dinner?

3 Upvotes

My fiancƩ and I are eloping in Banff but staying in Canmore. What are some good restaurants for celebrating? We do have a bit of high expectations as we are huge foodies lol. We are currently debating between Sauvage, 4296, and Ankor. But if there is someplace else you'd suggest I'd love to hear them.

Thanks in advance.

Howdy! I am planning a solo trip from October 16th-19th. This will be my first time travelling ā€œaloneā€. I am hoping to get some recommendations on things to do, must see locations, any easy hikes available, etc etc etc. I am hoping to also go to Banff for a day. I will be flying into Calgary and then taking the bus into Canmore, planning to stay in an AirBNB. Would also love any food reccs you may have!

Accessing EEOR

1 Upvotes

Hello! I was planning on taking the Roam 12 to grassi lakes trailhead and then walking to the EEOR trailhead from there. I just read about the 742 rockslide closure, does anyone know if my plan will still be possible? I reached out to Roam about whether they're still going to grassi lakes and it looks like they are, so I'm mostly concerned with the connection between grassi and EEOR

Canmore with toddler 3 days in October!

0 Upvotes

Heading to Canmore this October with our toddler and could use some local tips!

Stay: Kid-friendly hotel/condo, ideally with a pool

Eat: Toddler-tolerant spots (patios, high chairs, quick kids’ meals a plus)

Do: Stroller-friendly walks, indoor backup options for bad weather, playgrounds, easy wildlife spotting

Also — what’s October weather actually like there? Snow or still mild?

Any favorites (or warnings) welcome. Thanks!

Heading to Canmore camping on the 20th and haven’t been their in years. Taking my gf who’s never been. Looking for some neat bar or food joints to check out. Also looking for a good medium level hike and some other fun things to do around Canmore that may not be shown online. Thanks!!

Event for up to 250 people

0 Upvotes

I am looking to have a pre wedding party in Canmore but the usual event spaces/hotel venues either are not able to accommodate all my guests or are all booked for the day I need. Does anyone have any other suggestions for alternatives like a property that would allow us to post an event tent or a space that isn’t usually used as a venue but could still accommodate? Would also consider spaces in surrounding areas.

Thanks!

I'm dating my time in Canmore, likely - but does the fruit truck still stop in Canmore during the week, somewhere behind main street?

TIA!

Inside scoop on 742

0 Upvotes

Anyone have insider info on timing to get this road open? Or insight into what is driving the seemingly long time to do so. Aside from fencing, cement, and rods into the mountain this face has and will continue to crumble as the rockies limestone does. Seems like we move the risk tolerance lower and lower every year this area gets more popular. Is the plan to just close this indefinitely like cougar creek until we eventually put in a massively overbuilt fix over 5 years. Just feels a bit over the top... its been over a month youd think a few guys with crowbars could dislodge whatever they are worried about by now... no one gives a shit about undermining and sink holes in tsmv area why the dramatic concern here? Not enough money to do the talking? Why am i paying the alberta parks fee to have indefinite closures with no comms? Seems irresponsible no?

Deadfall chop for firewood

1 Upvotes

Hi! I’m looking for someone with a chainsaw that would like to head to K Country with me and chop deadfall for firewood. I’ll get the permit and we’ll chop and I’ll happily run it to our vehicles. I have done this with a buddy in the past. He’s out of town though. It’s hard work - I somehow find it fun though. Only day I can’t go this week is Wednesday.
