Itinerary:

The Stoney Creek Park trail network in Camrose is maintained by the Camrose Ski Club (for winter xc skiing). As not enough snow has fallen to permit xc skiing, we will still be able to hike through the park. It is a nice location to explore, and this trip will also be an opportunity to scope out the trail network in Camrose further as a location for cross- country skiing events over the winter months.

We will begin our hike at the Stoney Creek Centre, and we work our way south through the park. At the south end of the park we will reach the Camrose Ski Club's biathlon range.

Our total hiking distance from the Stoney Creek Centre to the south end of the park, and then back, will be about 12 km. If people are interested, we may extend our hike by an extra 2-3 kilometres, heading north to the University of Alberta's Augustana Campus. Trail maps for the area are available at:www. camroseskiclub.com/maps/.

Carpool Cost:

The event coordinator(s) will help you to arrange a centralized carpool if you require it, but it's not guaranteed. Please DO NOT pay your driver en route. Passengers will pay the coordinator, and he/she will distribute the money to the carpool drivers. SO PLEASE BRING CASH!!! Approximate vehicle expense for this event is $52.20 (calculated at total Km * $0.29, effective Friday, April 26, 2024). This is based on $0.09/Km for maintenance, plus current gas price divided by 9. This cost will be multiplied by the number of carpooled cars, and divided by the number of carpool participants.
