The upper Bow River in Banff National Park has been described as “North America’s most beautiful trout stream.” However, this world-class ecological and recreational resource is facing a crisis as evidenced by the population decline of its native bull and westslope cutthroat trout. Some of the factors affecting the watershed include water regulation activities, non-point and point source pollution, angler mortality, fire suppression, and climate change. Other factors identified by Parks Canada include the introduction of non-native species, the physical isolation of the upper Bow River from the middle and lower sections of the river by Seebe Dam, and loss of habitat connectivity due to railroad and highway infrastructure. This project aims to improve the ecological integrity of the upper Bow watershed above Seebe Dam by addressing some of the factors that are limiting bull and westslope cutthroat trout populations.
