I also live in the deep dark south and would ordinarily be keen to car pool but tomorrow I fly up to spend a few days in a oilsands project camp. Yup, living the high life.
I met you on the Tuesday ride in Fish creek. Interested in racing Giver8er on a team? doreen.taylor@fluor.com

Hi Kim, The map for the area can be found on the SpinSisters website under the rides sections, then take the link to Schedule and Trail Descriptions. The Jumpingpound Map can be found through this link www.spinsisters.ca/documents/SibbaldAreasMap.pdf. Hopefully this helps, look forward to seeing you tomorrow night. Cheers Sara-Jane

Hello Sara Jane,
Thank you for your response. I tried looking on the map and am still unclear of where the trailhead is. I am leaving the south hopefully by 5pm tonight and am wondering if I can just meet you guys at the Esso off of the TransCanada Hwy just after 6pm. I know you guys are meeting in Valley Ridge . I am thinking of driving up to Bragg Creek and heading north. So to save me some time and back tracking. I could just wait at the Esso and you guys could swing in an get me and I would just follow you. I drive a blue Ford Windstar . I could park at the west side of the parking lot .
Could yourself or someone please call me today if possible. I am at work so may not get to my phone right away but will call back ASAP. My cell # is 797-4104
Thank you,
Kim

Hi Kim,
Once you get on Highway 1...
Head west HWY 1 to the well marked HWY 68 (Sibbald Creek Trail) exit. Take the exit, go under the highway for about 12km to the Pinetop Picnic Area - there is a parking lot there where the group will meet and head out from... it is the first picnic area on the left at about the 12 km mark after HWY 1... there is a sign.

Kim, Where do you live? I just realized it's tues and not monday and i"m keen to ride tonight. I live in Chaparral and would love to carpool if you are interested. I have been to Jumping Pound before. Got lost the first time but I think I might have it down now. Email me at caityadam@shaw.ca if you are interested. I will also keep checking the forum all afternoon. Maybe post here and send me an email. i missed a carpool last year cause I didn't get the email until the next day. If you want to carpool we could go out via Bragg creek and we wouldn't have to leave so early. Caity
