NOTICE: Meadow Creek Trail Bridge in Ghost FLUZ is Unsafe

Due to a recent washout, the Meadow Creek Trail Bridge in the Ghost Forest Land Use Zone is currently unsafe for use. For details, see:

A Forest Land Use Zone (FLUZ) is an area of public land to which legislative controls apply under authority of the Forests Act, Forest Recreation Regulation (343/1979) to assist in the management of industrial, commercial, and recreational land uses and resources.

  • A FLUZ is created for a specific land base and the unique conditions that exist within that land base.
  • A FLUZ is established to better manage Alberta’s busy landscape and the land use activities, including recreation that occurs in a specific area.
  • FLUZ conditions are designed primarily to protect areas containing sensitive resources and manage conflicting land-use activities.
  • FLUZs are not designated as parks or protected areas.

Currently, there are 19 FLUZs covering approximately 11,200 square kilometres (4,324.34 square miles) of public land in Alberta.
