Few of my favourites have been up the Parsnip to Arctic Lake, Tuchodi a couple times was fun, really enjoyed the trip up the Toad river to moose lake, the Kakwa up to lower falls is beautiful, also really enjoyed the run up the Kootenay , we put in at Canal Flats went upstream into the mountains , never saw another boat . But we are kinda spoiled here if you like skinnier running. We have the Wapiti in our back yards , it’s a fun river all year , just depends how much touching and sliding you want to do. The top end from The Narroway to as far as you can go on the Wapiti can be fun , challenging , impassable , depending on water level and personal rock to aluminum tolerances. Not much pea gravel just big sharp pointy rocks, Boat repair guys love this river !! Lots of great trips so close .
PS, forgot a nice ride. Went up the Walker Creek road outside of McBride put into Mcgregor about 30 ish Kms up , we’re heading for Hedrick falls , got sidetracked , went up Jarvis creek till we hit a big log jam, then up another small creek (Ross will remember the name) were only a few miles from the Big BC sledders chalet but ran out of daylight. Still gonna do Herrick falls sometime.

That was my first trip last year with my boat. I have it on my inreach. Lenny or Ross would know better. That was a very fun day. The sun came out and the kids had a great time. I will see if I can snap shot the mapping and post it.

Always make it to the Narraway but after that pending water level can be challenging . Lol
Can go above the Belcourt about 3-4 kms to the slide and that’s it .

They let us launch at the campground. That was a few years back. You can probably launch into the river behind campers haven campground. We did load both boats out of the river from there. Once you pass under the bridge on the trans can heading south in towards golden. There gets to be miscellaneous channels with sand bars just hidden under the surface.

We’re planning a trip to Kinbasket and a two week trip to the west coast of Vancouver Island, specifically Ucluelet and Nootka Sound. I’m hoping there’s lots of salmon, ling cod, halibut.

That trek cannot be done, unless one can figure a way to get over the dam. Mica creek dam.
