Stewart Creek:
With mention of Stewart Creek's runner-up in the Best New Canadian Course in 2002, it should also be noted that it also recently ranked #2 for Best Conditioned Course in Canada and has the prominent distinction as an Audubon-certified course, awarded to those courses which preserve a habitat for plentiful wildlife.

A Few other Wild Creatures to Look out for:

Many small and large carnivores call Peter Lougheed Park (near Canmore in Kananaskis Country) home, such as the prime marten, three species of weasel, lynx, cougar, wolf, coyote, grizzly bear, black bear, and wolverine. Sightings of any of our elusive carnivores are rare indeed. An exception is the coyote which which is more common and can sometimes be seen travelling along roadsides.
