Here's a map for the Manning Park run.
The route is 417 Km which is about 5 hours of steady driving. Start-stop is the McDonalds on Willington in Burnaby. Comments? The Dawg |

I've done this route a number of times. The Hope-Princeton highway used to be a lot more twisty and narrow than now but still a great drive.

That looks like a great run. Any idea what date you want to do the run on.

Manning can be chilly even in the middle of summer. So this should be an August run I think. These are relatively high altitude mountain passes.
Nice day run in beautiful country. The Dawg |

Yes, August 2011.

Never shift into reverse without a back-up plan.

As long as it's not an overnight run. I've camped at Manning Park before and once (and only once) it snowed on my tent overnight....in late August.
