Rockies Heli Canada has sent in a proposal for the construction of a helipad for commercial helicopter tour flights at the base of Mount Yamnuska. The proposal has been met with much opposition from hikers, conservationists and guides. Many argue that a helicopter constantly touring Mount Yamnuska will have a negative effect on the ecology, the multiple habitats as well as creating noise pollution, ruining the experience of hiking the area. Â Alberta Environment and Parks officials are currently reviewing the proposal, reports Rocky Mountain Outlook.
