Paul, I did a section of the Red Deer,

The Red Deer has many sections. The parts of interest to whitewater paddlers are all upstream of Sundre. The main section starts
where the Forestry Trunk Road crosses the river, at Mountain Aire Lodge.

Paul, That name Sundrie sounds familiar. Faint memories of
crossing the river, turning left (upriver), and in a few hundred
yards, on the left, there is a small park/ picnic area. This was our
take-out. Went up above there maybe 8-9 miles or so. Really can't
recall the put-in, except that it was a short carry, then down a steep
bank onto rock. I think we drove a gravel road over a pretty good
hill looking for a put-in and didn't find anything, so backtracked,
and kind of headed back a trail in the woods. I don't believe we had
as much as 20 cms, but it was fun. I'd do this one again if I was
ever in the neighborhood. Tom McCloud
