i was going to the babcock snowmobille area a couple years ago . i had a sled for access but its not far anyways . lots of sled users so even if you head out solo you will probably have some eyes on you at times .

Hi Rabbit8. I just arrived in Dawson Creek and will be here for a year. I had a nice touring season so far around Pemberton-Whislter-Squamish for the last few months. I'm looking for partners with whom I will be able to go out for a day or two on weekends (overnighters or day trips)

Hi Rabbit8, unfortunately not. I will be in Revelstoke. I hope you find some touring partners this season. Have a good winter !

With some logging happening on Hwy 29 between TR and Chetwynd, I am curious to see if some access has opened up, the Miekle Ck. road in particular. Bourd, I and others have 4WD vehicles so access is not too bad.

Hi, I am an avid backcountry skier moving from Revelstoke to Tumbler Ridge for the coming few months and I would like to know more about the ski touring opportunities around there. I read the report about Holzworth meadows and I have been there before during the summer. I only have a 2WD car but I am keen to do overnighters and skin in up to 15km if needed to reach the terrain. It would definitely be great to find partners to go with as well... Thanks
