Port Renfrew

I concure, the Vic road really shook the sh*t out of my rig when I dragged it up there. Road through the Cow is the way to go if you have a choice.

One word of advice, from personal experience, and yes I still feel like a dummy even many years later. Make absolute sure you check your tie downs before heading down the road. Lots of dips in the road especially on the old pavement. I forgot to check mine one time and the boat bounced up off the trailer in a big dip, came back down a one of the rollers punched a hole in the hull. Damn. And take your time. It's not an Audobahn like some people think. Good luck and safe driving and boating.

Been that route with baseball in Lethbridge on the May longweekend. Near white out conditions coming into Calgary from Kananaskas and had freezing snow in Lethbridge during my sons pitching game. Otherwise is was a very nice weekend. Have fun.

I think they just call it the Caycuse connector because it's just before the road to Caycuse. Theres is a sign there anyway saying this way to Renfrew. Used to be anyway.
Sorry Giterdone , never been called that since I've been around ,grew up in that area , was wondering if the reference to Caycuse connector was a mistake , or did he want to try going through the Carmanah main and hook back up to the Gordon or Harris main, didn't make sense to me .

Your probably right,what do I know I've only been on that road a few times myself. I was referring to why someone else was calling it that. Sorry my mistake. And yes it is just after Mesachie.

FYI guys they have paved the road from Mesachie lake to Port. Only about 4k is not paved about 25k down. Other than that its a nice drive now.

Heading up there to get the trailer all set up and maybe sneak out and bounce my balls in the mud for a few hali's.. Let you know how I made out on mon when i get back home.. Anyone been going for salmon at all up there yet???
A couple came in off the "dink" spot just south of Nitinat.
Scratched up a smaller one and a mess of bottomfish.

Monday I was just pulling my crab traps and headin' home. Looking at the weather I don't think I'll make it very far this weekend, we'll have to see.
Crabs should be dynamite for a few weeks yet, they are not hard, but big and plentiful!
