Wheeling in S. BC?
 

Looking for some wheeling in Southern British Columbia. Either for some long trails
(2-3 days) or an area with a lot of trails where we could spend a few days. Anyone
have any ideas they can point me at??
Thanks.

Look near Harrison Hot Springs.
I was told about some trails out that way....but never got there. AND,
you'll be near the hot springs...which is a TERRIBLE TERRIBLE ;) place to
wheel!
There's enough logging roads out that way (and north of there) to get you
going!

Or go to the Island and I think Mike R. mentioned a trail that will take you
to the pacific coast side (near Tofino/Ucluelet). But I never did wheel
over there....shame!

Vancouver Island has tons and tons of logging trails! I have been
across from Courtney to Tofino via dirt (one paved crossing) and up in
the Campbell River to Tahsis area are piles more of really 'middle of
nowhere' trails. The whole interior of the island is gutted with more
trails than days to run them.

About the only downside to going to the Island is the $50 ferry charge...and
that's ONE WAY! Robbery!
