NORTH BANNOCK CREEK FSR

Driving to the very end of the north Bannock Cr FSR is some 32km from the pavement at Slocan City. In 2012, the road was in excellent condition with no impediments.

This road is the access to the Gimli Trail; from the switch back to the Gimli parking area, continue straight ahead and slightly down hill. Follow the well traveled road as it switches backs twice going down hill. The next intersections were marked with rock cairns. The road ends in a very good turn-around eight kilometres from the Gimli turn.

A route was flagged through the bush and timber to the base of the large avalanche path leading up to the Mt Dag basin. This is a spectacular hiking area with a very short approach—only 1.5km from the road end to the slide path. Late June is the best time to go, before the snow leaves the upper slopes and the green succulents erupt. Expect to see bears.

I would like to think of myself as a full time traveler. I have been retired since 2006 and in that time have traveled every winter for four to seven months. The months that I am "home", are often also spent on the road, hiking or kayaking. I hope to present a website that describes my travel along with my hiking and sea kayaking experiences.
