Swift Running Water Present Heightened Risks To The General Public

The public is advised of heightened risks surrounding all water activities involving the North Saskatchewan and Churchill River systems, and their tributaries, as well as the South Saskatchewan River system.

Continued high levels of precipitation on these systems have resulted in swift moving water, which can pose a hazard to both the public and property.  Conditions can be dangerous and change rapidly, even for those well experienced with water-related activities. Be aware of floating debris and high-water velocities.  People are advised to examine and avoid unstable banks.
