Not quite 5 kilometres west of the little hamlet of Bridesville, along the Crowsnest Highway, is the eastern end of Sidley Mountain Road, the western end of which comes back to the Crowsnest Highway about 5 kilometres to the west. Here, at Sidley Mountain Road East, just 30 metres east of Sidley Mountain Road and one metre south of the fenceline north of the highway stands 79C429, almost directly south of its blue witness post.
