Stakeholders pretty much ran the gambit at Wednesday's public meeting in Crowsnest Pass on recreation management in the Castle Wilderness area.

All the concerns with the province's plan for the area were represented including the Alberta Off-Highway Vehicle Association, snowmobile enthusiats, grazing leaseholders, Hillcrest Fish and Game, local ranchers and the MD of Ranchlands.

Recreational planning, conservation efforts and habitat protection were all discussed at the session.

A third public information session has been added in Blairmore on March 17.
