Does anyone have mapped trails that are at least 60kms long?
Looking for long rides on trails/ old rail lines that don't hit roads all the time
Thanks!

Whitcourt, Swan Hills, Rocky mt. House, Alder flatts, ect. Or any other good spots.

E-mail me at hadster69@gmail.com with your e-mail and i'll send you my Garmin GPS tracks on a mapsource program, for the old railline from Rocky to Nordegg, i can also send you a hand drawn map of the trail as well. When we are both free i'll take you for the tour as well.

Happy trails.

Hi,
Athabasca has the Peace Trail. Several trappers cabins along the way and the trail is probably 60k one way. We rode it last year for a day. We random camped at the trail head but were told that was a no-no. I am quite sure there is a trail from Calling Lake to it a well.

Hadster, is there much snow up there on the trail this year?

Unfortunatly i'm not sure, i haven't been out there since before the snow except in the pickup to look around, i've been busy around my new country home plowing snow and cutting trees etc.
I will be going out there sometime soon to clear the winter deadfall and check the trail.
I'll post when i make it out there.

Let me know the days you are doing clean up on the trail. Depending on schedule, I might be able to come out and help you.

That sounds alright guys, i'm not sure yet when i'll head out there as i'm very busy here with things at our country home. Right now i'm thinking about next weekend maybe the 27th, just tour along the trail and clear any trees etc. that may have fallen over since last fall. Probably only do about half way or so (depending on conditions) per day. I'll post early in the week if i think i'll be ready for that day.
Sometime this summer i would also like to try to clean up & do light repairs to the caboose and area, not sure if i'll be able to work that in but would be nice.
