Get plugged in to the research and issues of Jasper National Park! Parks Canada and the Interpretive Guiding Association (IGA) have partnered on a speaker series aimed at keeping guides, residents and interested visitors informed and up-to-date on what鈥檚 happening locally with recent research, monitoring, wildlife management and park issues. Hear from resource conservation professionals, university researchers and leading experts in a variety of fields. Check out Jasper National Park鈥檚 Facebook or Twitter links, the IGA webpage, or watch this space for upcoming speakers.
This week鈥檚 presentation at the Jasper Legion is 鈥淔IRE! Climate, People and Historic Fire Regimes.鈥�
Over the past decade, unprecedented wildfires have burned in western Canada. Many consider these fires once-in-a-lifetime events, but evidence from tree rings tells us they could not be more wrong.聽 Join us for this evocative look at the role of fire in our landscape and the effects of years of fire suppression across Canada鈥檚 west.
This session will be presented by Dr. Lori Daniels, an associate professor of forest ecology in the Forest and Conservation Sciences Department at UBC-Vancouver, where she directs the Tree Ring Lab.聽 Her research applies tree ring analyses to investigate disturbance regimes and the impacts of climate and humans on forest dynamics. With her graduate students, Daniels has on-going research in the foothills of Alberta, Rocky Mountain National Parks, coastal and interior British Columbia, and the southern Andes of Chile and Argentina.

Jasper鈥檚 Canada Day celebrations this year were well attended and took place under hot and sunny skies. Park wardens thoroughly enjoyed participating in the flag-raising ceremony and parade, but they also had to spend plenty of time responding to incidents around the park on this busy holiday weekend.
While good weather makes for great camping, a few visitors took it a step too far and disturbed their fellow campers by partying a little too hard, and in one case firing off an air rifle in the middle of a busy campground! To ensure a great experience for Jasper National Park鈥檚 visitors, these groups were evicted by Park wardens and charges were laid for campground disturbances. Wardens also spent some time patrolling Horseshoe Lake, often a busy area on hot days. While a few tickets were issued for open liquor in public, Park wardens were happy to see many families, visitors and Jasper locals out enjoying the area safely and responsibly.
