ACTIVITY/TRIP PLANNING

I’m testing the waters to gauge the interest in a springtime trip to the Thompson-Nicola and Nahatlach areas in BC.   In past years, getting over Kookipi Cr FSR has been a no go in late April, so I’m thinking May 11-13 this year.   I know that’s Mother’s day – but the following weekend is the 1st Canadian long weekend of the season and the place will be crawling with the devils.  We could try May 4-6 , but it could be a bit snowy yet.   The area between highways 5 and 1 has a lot to offer in power line roads, plus we could check the access to the “mini-whipsaw” – though it probably won’t be accessible until August.  I wouldn’t mind making a two night trip of it, but I wouldn’t likely make the border before 6pm that Friday.    I’ll be up in BC in March and April so I will likely do a bit of scouting at the lower elevations just to see whats changed since 2016.   Here’s the core route:

Let me know if this is an interesting trip.
