A white bucket sits in a creek flowing out of Hidden Lake — a cold alpine lake behind the Lake Louise Ski Resort in Banff National Park.

Inside the bucket, which has been turned into a remote streamside incubator with a few plumbing supplies, are dozens of tiny westslope cutthroat trout, a threatened species in Alberta.

“We have some eggs that we put into the lake about three weeks ago,” Shelley Humphries, an aquatics specialist with Parks Canada, said Thursday as she gave reporters a first-hand look at Parks Canada’s reintroduction of the species into the backcountry lake.
