===== West =====
[[Alberta highways|Highway #16]] crosses Edmonton's north end as the Yellowhead Trail. Heading west it is 4 hours to [[Jasper National Park]]. Bus 126 from Westmount terminal will take you to 184 st. Walk north from there a few hundred meters to the Yellowhead. It may be a bit tricky to hitch there but there is an on-ramp.
A better spot would probably be the overpass where 16A meets Hwy 16. There should be less local traffic and more long-distance traffic.
===== East =====
The best spot for going east is right beside the Rundle Golf Club. Type this into google earth, (edmonton, rundle golf club) and you'll see the ramp just north of it. Take the number 8? Or whatever bus it is that gets you to Abbotsfield station and walk back 100 meters across the street, by the lights and you'll see the sign that says 'Victoria Trail and Trans Canada', take the trans Canada.
