Use of Panels is Permitted in Panther Campground. As long as these guidelines are followed.

Guidelines are as follows:

1. Panels are to be set up on the gravel pads ONLY, such as those found at Highline poles and individual vehicle parking.

2. Panels MUST be attached to either the highline poles or vehicles or trailers

3. Pen size is RESTRICTED to one panel width (deep) and no longer than the distance between highline poles or length of your trailer. Pens are NOT to be larger than 3 meters in diameter.

4. Horses are NOT to be tied to the panels

5. When packing up, the area is to be cleared of manure and feed; which is to either be deposited in designated location or hauled away.

These guidelines are set in place by the Province of Alberta and if they are not followed you may be subject to a fine. Expect these rules to change. Panels are NOT PERMITTED in any other FOESA Campgrounds within Alberta Parks & Parks Canada.

The Panther Campground is located approximately 8.5 km down the Panther Road. This small campground is near the Panther River and provides a base for fishing, site seeing, or you can explore the country on the equestrian trails or ATV's.

The sites are all first come first serve, including group camping.

Garbage: This is a user maintained campground. Garbage receptacles are not provided.
It is MANDATORY that campers pack out their garbage.
Toilets: Vault toilets are available on-site. Toilet paper and hand sanitizer are not provided. Campers must be prepared to provide their own toilet paper and hand sanitizer. Toilets will be cleaned a minimum of once a week, campers may clean the toilet facilities themselves prior to their use if required. Dumping on any garbage or sewage into the vault is prohibited.
Wildlife: Campers must ensure that all garbage, food and associated attractants are secured within a hard walled trailer or vehicle when not in use to prevent attracting bears and other wildlife to your campsite.
This is an unserviced campground

According to Public Lands, the Panther Road, trails and campground are now open to OHVs. The trunk road is also open from south of Mountainaire to the Coal Camp Road and various spots from there to Highway 11. There will be enforcement for speed limits and alcohol use. More information is available on this year's Bighorn maps. Public Lands is making a new map on trails South of the Red Deer River available at Mountainaire Lodge.

**Unfortunately someone has taken it upon themselves to put up signs prohibiting OHVs on the Panther Road and in the campground. These have been taken down. If you see a person putting up signs or doing anything that looks out of place, please take a picture and FOESA will send it to enforcement.**
