    My husband was right as to what area he would be in. Husband has travelled that road over a hundred times for his work in Alberta. Said that between Valemount and Blue River there are some tight turns. One so bad that if you aren’t paying attention you can go off the road easily, over an embankment and into the river even. No one could see you over the bank. With waters being murky in the North Thompson, no one would know you were there either. Accidents happen to bikes and cars on this stretch of road.
