Thank you for the amazing video. Question?? - Is the 5 km highway road section in the middle of the Sea To Sky trail right on the shoulder of the road or is it like the one picture in your article... with a metal guard and trail on the other side. Wanting to backpack that section with my animals and wondering how safe? Thank you for taking the time to read and answer my question

@JordanVegBikeАй бұрын
definitely a fun trip, that hotspring was so nice. I don't know why but I think I got very lucky with everything. There were only a handful of people at the hotspring campground and overall traffic was pretty light. Definitely had one or two yahoo despite that, not sure how many more I could reasonably handle.

@michaelfodor6280Ай бұрын
I did the West Harrison / Inshuckchuck last year on a KLR. It was nice. The ugly section by the north end of Harrison Lake has been fixed. The worst is that it isn't well packed down, so traction will feel a touch sketchy. And I mean just a touch. Otherwise go for it.

Looks amazing, but yeah, wish there was a safer way to cycle from Vancouver to Squamish. Some kind of separated biking/walking route would be fantastic.
@JordanVegBikeАй бұрын
Yup. If the BC Government/Metro Vancouver/BC Hydro wanted to they could develop a route or allow bikes/hikers to use the existing access roads. I think they are partially motivated by mitigating wildfire risk, which is fair.
@MidnightPolakАй бұрын
@@JordanVegBike Definitely wildfire mitigation. I've driven enough FSRs to see what kind of garbage gets dumped and illegal campfires started and left behind. I'm pretty sure I've put out 2 or 3 on my own that I've stumbled across. But maybe if you have to cycle/hike it, you're going to get more of a crowd with... integrity.
@JordanVegBikeАй бұрын
@@MidnightPolak yeah I definitely don't think opening it up to public vehicle access is a good idea whatsoever. But partnering with the Trans Canada Trail, BC Hydro, Metro Van, Squamish Nation, etc and having designated campsites with pit toilets etc could be a really great hiking/cycling route and open up Squamish, Whistler etc. But again political will.

Thank you for this video. Great footage. The trail has cyclists crossing the highway (2:52 in the video) in a curve. Eeep. How far along the highway until you found the trail again? And how did you get on with the crossing? White knuckled?
@JordanVegBikeАй бұрын
yup good catch on that one! Unfortunately there are a few sections where the trail ends and puts you on the highway. That curve is the start of a 5km highway section, mostly downhill at least. I think you could cross a few dozen meters further up and have slightly less of a curve, but yeah it is still quite sketchy. Had to trust my ears on this one. (Luckily cars are very loud, even when you can't see them)
