Castle Crown Wilderness Coalition (CCWC)

Service Provider in Pincher Creek, Alberta

The Castle-Crown Wilderness Coalition was started in 1989 by a small group of southern Albertans who were concerned about the future ecological health of the Castle Region. Since that time the organization has grown to over 500 members, including more than a dozen member groups.

The 'Crown' in our name recognizes that the Castle Region is an important part of the Crown of the Continent Ecosystem which covers approximately 44,000 square kilometres of Alberta, BC, and Montana and includes Waterton Lakes National Park, Glacier National Park, and the Bob Marshall Wilderness.

The Coalition sponsors a stewardship program to monitor and begin to restore the Castle Wilderness. Volunteer stewards observe changes in their areas over time, report wildlife sightings and inappropriate activities of other users, pick up litter, remove invasive plants, and work to restore damaged areas. Their observations form the basis of an annual report: 'The State of the Castle Wilderness'.
