Rose Pass, Kootenays, B.C.

[bcmaxx]

Well the plan was to take both our Ktms on a multi day little tour of the st mary's, but a pinched back nerve ruined that for us. So instead we took my Jeep over rose pass. WOW! It has to been years since anyones been over. We pushed alders for about 6 hours. NOT FUN! I dont think I'd do it again it was that bad! Other that the overgrow the ride was nice, steep in places, nice views! I cannot imagine doing it on the bikes. We ended up stayin the night just on this side of St mary's Lake, then on to Kimberly for more gas and supplies. We headed up to white boar lake, wow what a nice place, and camped. We came home the gray creek pass. Heres some pics of our journey, I know they werent on bikes, but that was our intention!
