Thanks MBB, we need some locations for northern riding areas from all the Edmonton guys and some Crownest/Fernie . If someone else has the Gorden Sydney coordinates please check mine as I just guessed on that one. When using mapsource Topo Canada after putting in info you can then "view" location on Google Earth and so far can see all cabins except the Keystone cabin(low Res) I have all these loaded into the Garmin, could be a lifesaver when bad weather moves in.

Renshaw Cabin: N 53 28.332 W 119 58.242

or: N 53.4722 -119.9707


The other ones for McBride are in the staging and GPS exchange area that Snow and MUD has set up on this forum. These posts should really be in the GPS exchange area that has been running almost since the site was set up.

Not easy to see, but from the main page, look to the left hand side. You will see RIDING AND STAGING areas (not all of the ones posted here are on there so Great work posting them!)

Thanks, I went thru those and only Bell and Lucille had #'s so when I get a complete list I will send to Ron to add in that section with a complete map.

Ya your Gordon Sydney cabin is a little out compared to mine. I have N50.72487 W118.91264 or N 50 43.492 W 118 54.758
Your way point lands 1.8 KMS to the north east closer to the summit of Mt. Mara. of mine.

Fernie Cabin: N49.41106 W114.85093
:d

Ya awesome Idea. Email your file to journey_1000@hotmail.com if you can.:beer:

Also, your Sydney may be suspect...punched it into google earth and could not see a cabin, I know you mentioned it was a guess...or the cabin went in after the sat photo..LOL...probably not. (I SEE ITS BEEN CORRECTED>>>>>DISREGARD!!!!!)

I do have a few track files, one from Boulder Cabin to Turbo. Those come in handy as well.

I would love an updated one when your done. If you want a track from the cabin to turbo on boulder, let me know. I have a number of waypoints on the way, including superbowl, sugar, spots to head up to get out ect.
