GOLDEN EAGLE MIGRATIONThe Golden Eagle soars through the Valley of Adventure during its ancient migration journey each spring and fall. Long known to the people of our First Nations, the Golden Eagle flyway has only recently been re-discovered in Kananaskis, Alberta, Canada. With a wingspan of over two metres, the Golden Eagle navigates itself at speeds of up to 150 kilometres per hour with legendary dexterity.
Bruce will discuss this fascinating event, unique to Kananaskis Country, during Friday night’s ‘Eagle Talk’. On Saturdays, take your newfound knowledge out to the sports field with Bruce and personally witness this wonder. Science, myth and metaphor will cross paths as you explore your connection to the Golden Eagle. This eagle watching festival is just one portion of our Mountain Heritage program. The goal of the program is to foster an appreciation for the nature, history, and culture of the Canadian Rockies.
