River conditions
🚨 🚨 The Bow and Elbow rivers are above safe levels, and the Calgary Fire Department has issued a boating advisory that is now in effect. Please stay off the river for your safety and for emergency responders.
High, fast-moving water, cold temperatures, and debris are creating dangerous conditions, with poor visibility making hazards harder to spot. Pathway and underpass closures along the Bow and Elbow Rivers are expected to begin this weekend.
