As I drove to Kelowna for Thanksgiving last weekend, I saw some early signs of snowfall on the Coquihalla Highway. With winter looming, one of the most important aspects of getting out skiing, camping, snowshoeing, etc, during the winter is driving to your destination safely. So here’s a quick post with some useful resources:
- DriveBC.com – Easily the most comprehensive website for driving conditions in BC
- The Lowermainland / Sunshine Coast page is here
- Check out the webcams
- BCHighway.com has a break-down of road reports for all the major routes, BC Parks, border crossings, ferry times, etc.
- TheWeatherNetwork.com has an interactive map with live road conditions.
- The Squamish Forest District road information is a great resource for construction and conditions to a lot of the backcountry roads along the Sea to Sky Highway. Great for the roads that take you to trail heads such as Black Tusk.
