[@fieldandforest]

Made me very nervous but thankfully no wasps came out! When did you ride it?

[@chromebook2724]

@@fieldandforest the last week of july, i had been warned but accidentally let the gate swing open and made them mad. i didn't get stung luckily.

Makes me miss being out on my bike. Looks like a good time

[@YetiAdventure]

This makes us miss summer is a very substantial way. Excellent snapshot of the route!

Great edit job!

[@MyopicAdventures]

Great vid, thanks for sharing! I should add, your website is coming along really nicely, there are so many good trips in your journal 👍

[@mallorymcguire833]

Where is the starting point on the west end?

[@emanuelsmedbol]

Normally Hope but the Hope-Princeton section is currently closed due to old an wildfire so we just started in Princeton

[@le_sculpt8060]

Great video, if i plan to ride the trail from vancouver how/where do i start and end? 🙏

[@emanuelsmedbol]

Hi! The Brookmere section is still closed so you’d either need to ride Hwy 3 to Princeton or start in Princeton. Currently no estimated reopen date

[@emanuelsmedbol]

Oh and the official end is in Midway, where the KVR turns into the Columbia Western. But you can continue on that all the way to Castlegar easy peasy

[@le_sculpt8060]

thanks so much!

@@emanuelsmedbol sound like our anb back? will a day bike (non electric). 20 kmh ave fit? 🙏

[@danfedder1]

How did you get back to start point?

[@fieldandforest]

We drove our car to the kootenays, bussed to Vancouver with Mountain Man Mike, then biked back to the car. A bit of a hassle but worth it! Or if you don’t mind boxing up your bike(s) you can take them on the bus and skip the driving

[@fieldandforest]

In normal years you can also rent a car but seems like many of the small town rentals were closed due to covid

[@cathybausch7502]

What time of year did you do this trip? Looks amazing!

[@emanuelsmedbol]

September. Almost no bugs! Almost
