Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone has any current conditions on Cadomin / Ruby Falls etc. We have a trip planned to stay at whitehorse creek campground this weekend but it looks like the conditions may be bad due to flooding. We are trying to decide if it would be worth the trip or not. I hear that the road to the campground was washed out on the weekend.

Also, is there any way to Ruby Falls with the current conditions? We have only been there late in the season when the creeks are low.

Thanks in advance.

We are going to Watson Creek not sure how much riding we will get in but from what I am hearing Grave Flats is impossible to get at right now. I hear that there are trails more to the north of Cadomin

was out there 3 days ago...rivers were very high and fast.
river cadinal rd from ruby falls crossing towards cadomin was washed out in 3 places...we crossed thru the smaller creeks to only do the box canyon run
pembina road was good...hauled my 32 ft toyhauler out of there on sunday with no problems...still tons of snow up there ...might leave river very high for awhile..we never even thought of crossing it..it would rise 2 ft with the rain..it was crazy

We were there too, and you did not stop in to say hello. Where were you camped ?. We were at the very first camp(in trees) on the PR road just after you cross the tiny creek and before the "Y" in the road. 2 truck campers, one motorhome and one pull trailer.
Conditions are just fine. No trouble at all.
