Those headed into the backcountry this weekend are being told to be on the lookout for wolves.

Parks Canada has issued a warning, after some wolves were apparently tracking a worker at the Mount Norquay ski hill on Wednesday.

Officials say the wolves were demonstrating bold behaviour.

The animals are believed to be members of a wolf pack that were behind a number of problems this past summer.

The wolf warning is for the Bow Valley area in Banff National Park.
