Description of the flag

The Town of Crowsnest Pass came into existence as a result of provincial legislation which came into effect on January 1, 1979 and resulted in the merger of the Town of Coleman, the Town of Blairmore, the Village of Bellevue, the Village of Frank and Improvement District No. 5 into one municipality.

The town was changed to the status of Specialized Municipality on 16 January 2008.

A photo of the current flag was posted in the Reddit community r/vexillology: https://www.reddit.com/r/vexillology/comments/15owgl0/the_uninspiring_flag_of_crowsnest_pass_alberta/

The logo used for this flag appeared on the municipality's Facebook page in 2013. https://www.facebook.com/photo/

The flag displays five triangles resembling mountain peaks in shades of green to tan, the name below and under that the logo "Naturally Rewarding" in a green script font.
