Back in the 70s my family drove from medford oregon to Bella Coola in a class C motorhome to see my step sister. I have fond memories of bald eagles,and the river so full of salmon that you could almost walk across on their backs.😊
Thanks for the comment! I can only imagine how rough The Hill was back then. It’s in great condition today but every bit as windy and steep. It’s a stunning part of BC that few people get to experience.
Your video gave me great help, thank you, as I’m planning camping in Bella collar this summer, I was worry about the road condition as my rv trailer is a 30feet 9000pounds heavy one. Now I feel much better going there, and I’m a fishing fan too. It’s a very good place for fishing😁
Thanks for the comment. Put it in 4 wheel drive, 4 low and first gear. Have your hand on the manual trailer brake and go slow is the best advice on this hill. Gear up as necessary. You don’t want to build up any momentum though. The road is wide, smooth and well maintained. Switchbacks are also wide. There’s a good pullout at the top of the hill with a sign showing what the grade generally looks like. The grade percentage signs at each of the steeper sections though do not match what the large sign at the top of the hill suggests. They are actually steeper in some case. Take your time. It’s a short adventure!
Great job documenting your journey to a really amazing place! I'm planning a trip to BC this summer. You've inspired me to include Bella Coola. I think the guitar music you have in the background is great. May I ask who is playing?
Will be on the Dempster just as the fall colours come in first week of September. Spending 10 days on it and going all the way to Tuk. Stay tuned for all the videos!
Not quite a piece of cake trip . If a semi is delivering You back up until there is room for both . No guard rails keeping you from a death drop . Remember when visiting that it is bear and native people who are the majority .
You are right on all counts. It’s a long trek. The horsefly’s are viscous up near the top of the hill. I’ll be back as this is a stunning part of BC and the fishing is fantastic.

Thanks Ev. It’s a place I’ll be going back to for sure.
Lovely and very informative video,thanks Carsten
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. 😁
Ahhh Heckman's Pass... Nothing like looking down on the Atnarko for the first time 👌
It’s a stunning view from up there for sure. The Atnarko is a very picturesque river. Great fishing and grizzly bear watching too!
Nice one Carsten! Looking forward to more of your adventures and I might even try The Hill in the Tiffin next year.
Thanks! I have a few more lined up for this year and plenty for next year. Stay tuned!
Very good , thanks for sharing !

Have fun in BC! Not sure who wrote that song but it’s one of my favourites.
