Horse Creek & Hwy-1A to Bottrel Store

Coordinator:  Robert Somerville

Type of Ride:  Road Intermediate to Advanced- Anticipated Pace 20-23 Km/h, One Large Hill Climb

Distance: 61 km

Elevation gain:  523 meters

We will head up Horse Creek Road and then to Township Road 284, turn right. The Botrell store is located in a (rather steep) valley bottom to the RIGHT. 

Some food is available at the Bottrel Store , or bring your own snack.  Bring some money.

 There is no sweep, however the coordinator will stop at major intersections to make sure that no one is left behind.     Coffee or other beverages (to be discussed later) will be an option at the end of the ride.

Bring water, possibly a snack, a helmet, a spare tube, appropriate clothing for the forecast weather,  and small toolkit. And money to buy food and drink at Bottrel.

There are no washroom facilities at the start point, so it is suggested you possibly use washroom  facilities in Cochrane, including possibly the Historic Ranch Park on the Hwy 1A, just before HWY 22.
