This is a cue sheet for the Badger Pocket Bicycle Map. You can print it out for later use.

Cumulative Distance Where Notes Direction Elevation
0km 0km Start Proceed east on University Way. E 87° 479m
1.74km 1.74km Pfenning Road Turn left. NNW 360° 485m
2.55km 0.81km Judge Ronald Road Who was Ronald and why should I judge him? Turn right. E 89° 496m
3.5km 0.95km Paul Rogers Wildlife Refuge Park There is a small nature preserve with short walking trails accessible from the parking lot here. E 89° 501m
4.16km 0.66km Wilson Creek Road Turn right. SSW 180° 506m
8.2km 4.04km Number 6 Road I-90 overpass Number 6 Road is the only "official" North/South route across I-90 between Ellensburg and Kittitas. But there are agricultural tunnels under I-90 at Bull Road and Denmark Road. These are narrow and dark (after coming out of full sun), occasionally have debris or standing water in the bottoms, and suffer the occasional teenage driver plowing through them at a reckless speed. I use them, but with caution. S 162° 462m
13.17km 4.97km Thrall Road Thrall is, now, essentially a name on the map - no town, no stores. There's a bit of evidence of a former community in the form of a few buildings that have seen better days 1/4 mile west on Canyon Road. Turn left. SW 209° 434m
22.22km 9.05km Badger Pocket Road Turn right. ESE 111° 504m
23.78km 1.56km Badger Pocket Road Bear right, staying on Badger Pocket Road. SE 119° 521m
32.91km 9.13km Upper end of Badger Pocket The military reservation boundary is beyond this point, so both skinny tires and fat tires have to turn around here. WNW 271° 644m
41.99km 9.08km Hamilton Road Bear right, leaving Badger Pocket Road. NNE 518m
44.86km 2.87km Sorenson Road Jog right, then left, to head north on Prater Road. W 270° 505m
48.74km 3.88km I-90 Overpass Cross I-90 on the overpass. NNW 338° 533m
49km 0.26km Parke Creek Road Turn left. WNW 271° 544m
51.91km 2.91km Hemingston Road You could turn here and use Hemingston Road and Clerf Road to avoid the town of Kittitas, but why forgo all that charm and ambiance? WNW 283° 504m
52.97km 1.06km 1st Ave Cross Clark Street bearing slightly left. WNW 277° 504m
53.19km 0.23km Kittitas There's a small grocery store in Kittitas where you can suck down a bottle of Yoo-Hoo if you need some fuel to fight the (typically) NW Kittitas Valley winds for the rest of your ride back into Ellensburg. Turn right on Main Street. WSW 247° 502m
53.52km 0.33km 4th Avenue (Kittitas Highway) Turn right. ESE 92° 503m
53.85km 0.33km Number 81 Road Turn left, following the main roadway. SE 114° 507m
57.96km 4.11km Lyons Road Turn left. NW 305° 557m
64.41km 6.45km Wilson Creek Road Turn left. SSW 180° 526m
65.23km 0.82km Game Farm Road Turn right. SSE 154° 516m
66.92km 1.69km Brick Road Just past Pfenning Road, a very short rise in the road - OBEY the stop sign at this dangerous intersection (it's tempting to run it because of the rise). Turn left on Brick Road. SW 211° 511m
68.52km 1.59km University Way Bear right merging onto and heading west on University Way. W 269° 484m
69.3km 0.79km Finish Maybe it's time to badger the (deep) pockets in your community for better bicycle infrastructure! W 267° 479m
