Very interesting and good video ❤❤❤

Realistically, how long from Bella Coola to Williams Lake? Time wise.

Also a hotspring on other side of bay. In the 1960s it was a hole that the water came out of and d someone built an in ground bathtub, cement, I believe and had moss type covered planks in the bottom. You could only access at low tide. Where you are, it was a shack with a tub in it and a hose that ran continuously in it. We would bailout the tub a couple of inches to put in cold water. It was very hot. There were two middle aged men living up the river and they would walk down to the outdoor, homebuilt tub at low tide for their bath. This was all back in the 1960s when I was a kid. We used to go and visit Frenchie and Simpson and their Siamese cat, who lived on a house barge. Sometimes a dock would be at the entrance on the right and sometimes in the bay. The bay was usually too shallow at low tide for more than one boat to be tied to it. I think it was a fisherman’s net dock fir when he repaired his net.

Surprised you don’t have rock protection for your boat.

Really enjoyed it

Great trip you guys. Too bad few crabs. I few years ago we flew into Ocean Falls to meet friends on their boat for a trip through the inside passage. While at Ocean Falls we set one crab trap at about 2 pm, picked it up about 2 hours later hoping to have a crab for dinner. It was full of crabs, I mean stuffed. We threw any crab 7 inches or less back and kept the 8 and 9 + ones. I had never seen so many crabs in a trap. Apparently it is the eel gras which holds the big crabs. 60 feet of water right infront the blue building. I have pics as proof. You could make Ocena Falls in your boat . There is a dock and small store there.

Couldn't imagine a worse hill to be on, in snow. That snow plow is the only reason you made it.

That steep drop-off next to the road is actually Young Creek Canyon.

Shhhhh

Just watched you catching some beautiful bows thanks for taking this old coyote fishing

the water looks so calm is it always like there up there?

Great video, I’m going to try your fillet method on my next Kokanee limit. Thanks for sharing 😎

Work Channel ?

Thank you so much for sharing your set up. Most guys wont show nothing. Im heading up in the cariboo end of feb. Thanks again for your video...

Read story very interesting! Slow down your video pan as us older folks need time to process. Good work

Now GET BACK THERE! Look at all that exposed cobble. There's GOLD in them thar banks! Probably LOTS. 😧

Popped in to add Russians in BC circa 1950 were likely Russian Doukhobor exiles. Many were in New Denver. They were chased like dogs. A sad tale when you dig into it - you may have seen national news articles recently.

Very cool, what a great way to spend a day :)

Cool video, bush looks dry as a popcorn fart already

Live nearby and never knew the island existed. Bizarre story. Thanks for posting.

where those orcas you passed in the start of this video?

3 bottle caps screwed to a 1" dowel works awesome for scaling. Totally have to scale 'em, Im the same way. Nice fileting skills bud 🍻

Thanks for the video. I’m wondering where you got the fillet knife from. Good job, love that green machine.

Awesome video . Gunna go try my luck up there soon Any lakes around that you suggest for burbot ?

Really appreciate your videos. Which community would you suggest a single lady goes to live off-grid near???

nice video. where did you find that cover for the bow of your boat? Thanks.

Is this chimney near Williams ? Is there burbot in this lake as well Don’t live around here but going to be working out here for the next few years . Looking to target burbs

Heard lots about that road , thanks for the video helps ease my mind

Cool vid....been up that Hill many times in many conditions. Always amazed how things improve/fall apart in a very short period of time. AND....definitely need a full tank and cash in case power is out or interac is out along the Chilcotin. Glad you got back safely and had Mr. Plow there.

I’m so impressed with your crab and prawn trapping and your guided tours. Beautiful country!

Great video, Wes!

Quite the adventure! Glad to see you are doing well; great truck, beautiful boat. I loved your narration.😊

Lol wish the ministry marked the road better after they put the new road in. I’m going back out there in a couple days and I’m bringing a sign with me.

Thanks. I thought most of it was paved. Glad you mentioned that at the end. Can't wait to see the Ocean.

That first turn at the top use to be a nineteen percent grade.

Very nice tour, Thank You !!

Thanks very helpful. The road does haven image that looks darn too. It’s. Not for the faint of heart. Keep up the great work love the drone shots too.

I was over to Texada for 1 day last May long weekend, didn't get past Gillies bay due to limited range on the e-bike, hopefully get back there soon on the motorbike.lot's more to explore,thanks for sharing.

Maybe the spring have cooled down because we definitely coo,ed eggs when I was younger.

When we first started going there t hat big pool your In wasn't there it was just a smaller pool at the hot end a d t h e ca n p grou d was this rustic camp ground way nicer than that a n d ft here was always a moose in the boardwalk area.

I grew up in watson lake back in the eighties when the alaska highway was still a trajl, my dad aas an airport manager and we spent almost every weekend there as my mom and i were in a very bad car accident and moms leg was almost amputated andthesprings were so good for her legs.
