Location: AB-887 and AB-3,  Forty Mile Cty

Reassurance shield as Highway 887 begins. The road heads south down almost to the border, connecting to Highway 501.  It doesn’t pass through any cities or towns, and is only sporadically paved.

50 boring kilometers later, we’ll approach Highway 61

Turn right for 61 west. Stay straight for 61 east, which follows the 887 corridor for a couple kilometers.  887 was heading due south but bends 90 degrees to give 61 traffic a simpler movement.

Follow 61 west to Foremost and 61 east/887 south towards Elkwater, which isn’t really anywhere near here or accessed by here, but it’s a town and there’s nothing else around here.
