Footnotes ...

<1>The elevation is an estimate for the area around Ensign - it will be higher in some places and lower in others.
<2>When there's a risk of an area code running out of phone numbers, an 'Overlay Area Code' is created that has the same geographic boundaries as the existing area code. In this case, the 403 code has been Overlayed with one of the following codes: 368, 587 or 825. New phone numbers in the Ensign area will be assigned with one of these codes: 403, 368, 587 or 825. As a result, placing a call in the Ensign area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).

We are not confident about the location and the position of our marker is only a rough guide. If we have too many doubts about the location, we will not include it in our database.
