About the Journey

This route follows an abandoned powerline corridor once used as a service road by Teck Metals. It is an off-road trail experience that travels over a pass north of the official proposed TCT route, climbing to the headwaters of Gray Creek. It is generally snow free longer than the forestry road, but services and assistance are not available. Be sure to contact the Gray Creek Store for the latest trail conditions before heading out.

GPS INFORMATION:

  • KML/KMZ files can be opened in Google Earth, and many smartphone apps.
  • GPX files can be opened by most GPS software apps when KMZ cannot. Note, GPX files do not contain custom colours and icons that we use on our maps; all tracks and icons will appear the same colour and styles. We recommend using KMZ instead of GPX if possible.

The files below include data for only this specific area. For all of our Trans Canada Trail data for the entire province (including features, campsites and alternate routes), download our BC.kmz master file (1.2 MB) Visit our GPS & Navigation page for instructions of how to use your smartphone as a GPS device (even when outside of data coverage) or how to import data to your Garmin unit.
