I have been up to Pitt Lake myself and never had wheels on my canoe :(. There is a great route up by Pitt Lake, called Widgin creek, once you get up there, there is a crystal clear pool. Cheers, hope next time the trip treats you better! Wow, great post, sounds like you need another vaca from canoe trip. I have been up to Pitt Lake myself and never had wheels on my canoe :(.

At least you got some great photos :) Wow, that sounds like it wasn’t as much fun as it could’ve been. At least you got some great photos :)

Most of the trees that were down had obviously been there for a LONG time, and there was one instance where a log had been cut so it only left the piece across the trail, but the rest had been cleared away (prompting a hearty WTF!?! from our clan). The Lodge *was* nice though - leisurely walks through the woods, lounging about with books, and a ridiculous amount of time spent watching Animal Planet on Satellite (since we don't have that channel).

Even some of the non-remote, mainstream trails around Vic are still in bad shape. The lodge sounds sounds nice, though. ;) I imagine the trails are a mess from last winter’s storms.

I'd actually really like to try the Bowron Lakes circuit someday - considering it's supposed to be the "gold standard" in canoe/portage/camping trips, it'd be nice to have a comparison. Cool.
