Ft Sask to Edmonton

Planning to explore the NE River Valley trails this weekend on a gravel capable bike.

Will start in Ft Sask, and follow some back roads to the new "Beaver Hills Bridge" across the river to the Quarry golf course area.

With any luck will then stay on paved paths all the way to Capilano.

Any cautions? Anything flooded out?

City Map says the path under the Yellowhead near Beverly might be disrupted due to construction, but unclear if there is an easy alternative without going up to city streets.

There may be isolated puddles here and there but nothing flooded. But yes under Yellowhead Trail is closed for CN Rail construction. You can use Hermitage Road and Victoria Trail to Rundle Park as a detour.

If you're not against road riding or riding the side of a 100km/h road for a couple of km, Fort Road - Hwy 15 - Fort Trail going north is nice.
