No nature photography trip to Vancouver Island's west coast is complete without including the tallest standing Douglas Fir on the planet, the Red Creek Fir, or "Big Doug" as I call it. To get there you turn off Pacific Marine Drive in Port Renfrew just south of Lizard Lake and follow the Bear Creek Main east past the San Juan River campsite then turn right on to the Red Creek Main and follow it back west 5km.
I used to carry something like this in my trunk to get me out of a jam when I was younger, stupider and drove my ghetto lifted Chevette with Mohawk winter tires on it around in the back bush of the Okanagan for kicks. I would often go in to stupid places with the 4-wheelers and eventually get myself stuck or high centered.
I want to see something like a system of 4x 12" wide folding ramps that can strap to your roof rack and be configured in to a 4x4 ramp or bridge up to 4' tall and 12' across and can take up to 10k lbs. Something like the Army Corp Eng instant bridge but scaled for personal offroad use, because, reasons.... ;-)
Sweet! and welcome!
Cherokees were born to wheel, you'll have lots of fun in that.
Nice, thanks Shane!

I believe the Weeks Lake pass is still gated and a no-go, otherwise that would be a good way to get to the Butler Mn side of it from Shawnigan.
