Board Reviews Park Repairs, Cabin Damage and Staffing as Spring Work Begins

Mar 17, 2026

Staff reported on Sherman house kitchen renovations, a fallen tree that damaged an Eden Valley cabin (incident reported to insurance and the cabin blocked from reservations), selection of a park ranger pending background checks, and tree-clearing work at Manikowski and Mockridge ahead of burn season.

The full story

Staff presented a range of maintenance and operational updates. West District reported work on the Sherman house kitchen, and an incident in which a tree fell on the deck of a cabin at Eden Valley; an incident report was filed with the department’s insurance company and "Karri has blocked off the cabin so no one can make a reservation until it is replaced." East District reported a park ranger candidate has accepted the position, with background checks underway.
