Hi, like the pics, just like to ask, how do you get to Ruby Falls? been quading to Cardinal River Falls but have no idea where Ruby Falls is and how is the quading to get there this time of year April/May or is better to go in July/Aug
Thanks Roger

 

[bobbyo]

july and augest would be the best time to go the rivers are not flowing as fast i will try to post a map later for you

 

[bobbyo]

continue driving down highway 47 passing rob on the right hand side nine kilometers from rob you will come to highway 40 junction turn right heading to cadomin continue down thia gravel road until you hit the pembina river road[approx. 10 km] turn left continue down the pembina river road stay straight no turns until you hit the cardinal river road approx. 45 to 50 km make a right onto cardinal river rd drive 3 km to trail head sign.

once you are on the trail you will come out of the bush and cross the creek if you go straight that trail will take you to chimminy and the swinging bridge so go to the right the trail if very rocky so go slow

hope this help you

How would it be in the next 3 weeks with a utility quad?? Is it to hard to ride with the melting / soft snow and rivers running? Ive only gone in the summer / fall, and usually on bikes.

Do you have a Garmin GPS and a MapSource Software in/on your computer, or PM me your email address and I will send you a JPG. I do not do pic's on forums.

if the ice is off the cardinal river it will be hard to cross i have done it but very scary with the water so high and moving so fast

 

[Landrew]

Thanks,


I think I will wait....

anyone going riding up to cadomin this weekend?

 

[JimmyFlynt]

not this weekend.. but i think there is a group of us going to the Cadomin area for May long

 

[Landrew]

If you go up any time before about the middle of June you should try to get a report up from others first. I've gone there every year usually 2-4 times a year and even in June we had snow on the way to the Box Canyon falls. In June there are sometimes ways around it, but in May most likely not. If your on bikes it's tough, quads not so much. Heading to the top of Cadomin mtn is probably ok and Ruby Falls (just high water levels)



When we go we go everywhere possible and we are on bikes so we whine about deep snow stopping us from reaching our end points.

If you go can you post a report as I'm itchin to get there as well for the 1st time this year?
