We will be leaving Edmonton at 8am sharp! We will be meeting in Sherwood Park at the Sobey’s Parking Lot off of Wye Road. Map below. Reason we are meeting here, easy access to HWY 21. I will be there at around 7am. There is a Timmy Hoes right beside Sobey’s.
We will plan to be in Drumheller at around 11 am-ish and head straight to the Tyrell Museum. I think we will spend approx. 2 hours in the Tyrell then we can do some picture taking at the hoodoos or at Horseshoe Canyon.
After that, I was thinking of heading into Calgary for lunch. I don’t know about you guys but I wouldn’t mind hitting up Pete’s Drive Thru for some “low cal” burgers and shakes. The drive to Calgary is about 1.5 hours.
Route to Calgary: HWY 9 South then West to HWY 21. Turn South and hook up with HWY 1 to Cowtown.
If that is not something you want to do, then we can stay in Drumheller for lunch, do some hiking trails, more pics or something then head back to Edmonton later that afternoon.
Please make sure your car is in good working order, I don’t want to leave anyone stranded on the highway.
Meh, it wouldn’t be weird. I’m looking forward to going, Went a few years back and the Tyrell has gotten to be a kick ass museum. And the drive there is nice.
i can definitely go on Sunday June 29 and i can get a free family admission pass that might cover admission for us. We can say we are related?! But if that doesn’t work then go on Saturday. That might be the better day for you guys anyways. I hate working Saturday!!!
Hey Dennis. I know this was discussed earlier. but any chance youd be willing to move the date to sunday? I found out I’m gonna have to more than likely work on that sat :x
I will have to discuss with the rest of the people coming. I think there are a bunch of people that work on Monday, that is why I wanted to do this on Saturday.
Post in advance if you’re going to stop in Calgary. I’ll be in Red Deer on Sat, but I’ll be back home on Sunday so I might be able to make a visit over to Pete’s and meet up with you guys for a bit.
