In
1993 I was the first person to walk across British Columbia for the Trans
Canada Trail. At the time we did not have a name for the trail, nor any
firm idea where it should go. Thanks to the dedicated work of hundreds
of volunteers, the TCT is now one of the premiere recreational routes
in the world.
In 2001 I traveled the 'new and improved' route, becoming in the process
the first cyclist to ride the Trans Canada Trail across the province.
I kept a log of my journey based upon the new Trans Canada Trail guide
book that was published in the same year.
I wrote these reports from a cyclists point of view, but anyone planning
a hiking or horseback trip will benefit from the reports.
I am always amazed by the diversity of the people, landscape and wildlife
that is contained within our province. Good luck with your Trans Canada
Trail adventure!
