~2,200km later and it's back home. Kelowna > Langford > Port Hardy and back, with lots of scenic backroads between Campbell River and Port Hardy for the Coast to Coast TSD rally. We even went to Holberg and stopped in the most remote pub on the island. I can't understate how incredibly scenic the north island is and how friendly everyone we met was, both the people involved in the rally and the locals we encountered. Only us and one other team were doing the long math, everyone else was running variations of unlimited so even if you don't care much about the TSD aspect of things it's a great way to experience the region with someone else figuring out the itinerary and support.
I forgot to take many pictures since my phone was running the checkpointing app and I didn't want to risk messing with it but there's a few in the spoiler if anyone wants to see them.
Spoiler!
I've never taken a ferry this time of day and the sunset over Saltspring Island was lovely.
The last time it was clean-ish in Langford
A little dirty Saturday morning
A couple of the other cars. I love the variety of entries, everything from an Echo to a 911 to a Land Rover.
More dirtier
The boot tree near Holberg
Peak dirtiness before it rained at the Swartz Bay terminal
Cleaned up a little by the rain, I stopped at the Hope Slide to check everything was good before taking the route through Princeton home (so much more fun than going through Merrit).
