Transalta Road - South Ghost

[BlackBear]

To Get There: Take HWY 40 (Forestry Trunk Road) north from HWY 1A, just east of Ghost Lake. Continue for 21.4km until Richards Road joins HWY 40. Continue North on HWY 40 for another 200m to a dirt road on your left. Cross a cattle guard and pass a sign board on your right. Continue for another 16km sticking to the main road, until you come to the "Big Hill". This hill is loose, so unless you have a four wheel drive or you want to chance not getting back up, this is the end of the road. At the bottom of the hill you can gain access to the river at several locations in the gravel plains....Tread Lightly and leave no Trace !
The scenery is breath taking!

Looks like a great place to pitch a tent for a few days. Thanks for sharing. Would you happen ton have GPS coordinates? Looks nice and secluded.

The reason I ask, we hit the FTR coming from Edson heading south to Robb/Cadomin area (we camp a lot near Elk River Rd but the area is getting too busy with logging and oil companies)
