There's a road that dipsy doodles from Elbow Falls all the way up to the 40, but it's closed in winter. I suppose with that nice blast of warm weather last month, it could have been passable. I think it usually opens around the end of April, so it wouldn't have been far off.
The police originally said for people in the Bragg Creek and Priddis areas to check their properties. Basically they had the idea that he went straight down 22x, which leads Elbow Falls (and beyond, if your vehicle is capable).
If he did use the TC to get to the 40, then the police talking about the 22x area may have been a bit of a ruse, perhaps why the suspect felt confident enough to talk to the media.

The couple of interviews I saw were on camera, and they gave me a pretty bad feeling. So shifty, lighting a cigarette during the interview, saying things like "who says they're dead" and "they're only missing right now" just came off as really strange. I suppose that could be construed as concern rather than guilt, but when the father is immediately considered not to be a suspect, and this guy actually gets arrested and his house searched for nearly a week, and then he goes on camera saying "they're only missing", I was pretty much thinking the same as you.
I'll let the court decide who is guilty, but whoever it is better get ready for some tough sledding in prison. You don't kill a two year old kid and then survive in general population.
My thoughts are with the family. The father. I just can't imagine.

That is Powderface Trail, and it doesn't open until May 14th, and is a locked gate.

Honestly, he could have gone down 22x, ran into the closed road and turned around to head to the TC. Imagine there was some credible tip or video evidence of him going that way and then back, so not unheard of they could have assume he dumped when he went that way the first time.

Sounded to me as the bragg creek area was more evidence being burned, they obviously had a lead or found something to be in the grizzly creek area at 4am which is interesting

Is the locked gate new? Last I saw it was a simple traffic barricade that you could move out of the way and drive past.

It's actually closed at Elbow Falls until May 15. Powderface trail where the pavement ends is open but not well maintained. You just can't get there until the 15th.

And that is precisely where they were found it looks like.

That's close to the gas station on Highway 40 by the Fortress turn off. Between there and the winter closure gate.
I wonder if dogs dragged them from bragg creek through the mountains to that location.

That guy definitely looked 100% guilty. But also shame on those reporters for their initial hidden camera interviews. Hopefully they didnt muck up a fair trial.

You can get from Bragg Creek to there in about an hour.

Interesting choice of words from the police in the initial release....
"The investigation led officers to a heavily wooded area near Grizzly Creek located off Highway 40."
Doesn't appear to be heavily wooded where that yellow thing is..unless the scene is further in the woods.
