nov 1 is when you can set up camp, so usually the race for spots starts at midnight on the 31st.this is only our second winter so we take whats left,dont want to cause problems with taking a spot that has been someones for years..

I know my nephews and their buds are chompin' at the bit. Retired the motorhome for a new to them Atco trailer

The Kakwa Kadillac is slated to go in on Sunday morning as well. Hope to get the same spot as last year.
From what I here the road is pretty slick, take your time and get there in one piece. Hopefully see you down there Rotormech, stop in for a chat.

After this snow, that road is going to be terrible, and the rain for this weekend,.. travel safe.

Whats the Kakwa Race?

stickman · 10-31-2009, 09:48 AM

The Kakwa Race is a loose term used by the winter campers that put camps up on the Alberta side of the Kakwa area.
Once you get your permit you can set up a camp for the winter. You can't put your camp in before Nov 1 and it is a first come first serve basis to get a spot. There are limited spots so the Race to the camping spots starts early in the morning.
