Unfortunately the National Park boundary does not get rendered below
zoom level 10 (1-9).

Large parks like Jasper National Park, Banff National Park, Wood
Buffalo National Park, Waterton National Park and Elk Island National
Park disappear off the map before you get out far enough to see where
they are.

Large defining features of our province can't be seen unless you're
zoomed right in tight.

You can have a look at some horseback trails, and footpaths in the
mountains outside of the Ram River Falls area for reference.
