I took a 300km round trip yesterday on the Sea-To-Sky to Whistler and back. They've been repaving most of the road, the weather is terrific this time of year, and if you go on a weekday the traffic isn't bad. Thick mountains, waterfalls, and sheer cliffs on one side, and the beautiful ocean on the other. Kilometer after kilometer of twisty fun stuff, along with the occassional long, open straight to stretch your legs. Not to mention the fine dining when you reach the resort town of Whistler. It's heaven.
I strongly recommend anyone heading this way to make the trip.
P.S. I'll have some pictures for you soon. Just gotta get them uploaded.
Shhhhh, it's our little secret. If everybody knew what we had here we'd be inundated with tourists. Been in the mid-80's locally and almost froze in the fog in Monterey a few weeks ago at 54. Brrrrr.
To see how long it would take someone to notice.
There's a June 2001 post with no responses from a user who last logged in this month! That's amazing. I was tempted to PM him to bump his thread.
DaMann;
Did you by any chance carry on a bit further and do the drive from Campbell River to Gold River?
If you didn't, you severely missed out in at least 2 ways:
1. it is a beautiful twisty road especially suited for our type of cars and motorcycles going through beautiful Strathcona Park, hence very little traffic ... and I mean very little traffic;
2. that road gives you access to many out-of-this-world hiking trails throughout the Park.
Happy BC motoring, mon ami!
No I didn't go that far. I have family in CR so stopped there. I go there quite often though so next time I might take a burn up to Gold River. I've been up that way before but not in my Porsche. Stunning scenery up there!
The drive from Vancouver to Whistler is definitely one of my favorites no matter what time of year. Never done it in the 996, but loved doing it in my old 3-series.
It's a nice drive for sure.
It's just a shame you get these people who do the same speed in the outside lane as the guy on the inside lane ( only 2 lanes) which is standard Vancouver driving procedure it seems and there are a lot of sped/radar cops on the whole stretch as it's the only place in Vancouver where you can stretch your legs a little ...sometimes ..if your careful...
Nothing wrong with a good necro post once in a while DT. Must have been drinking heavily to get back 15 years though.
This is PCA Canada West and Pacific NW Whistler weekend. 110 cars on display between concours/show-and-shine all through the upper village near the Chateau. Will post some pics later. Perfect day for it and what a great place. Tomorrow is auto cross for some or Duffy Lake for a winery lunch in Lillooet for others.
That is so true. Once you get past Horshoe Bay which is 90km/hr it drops to 80k/hr ....but a bit further at lions Bay Area it suddenly drops to 60km/hr and they just sit there and fish away.
Here in BC if you travel 40km/hr above the speed limit they "confiscate" your vehicle for a minimum of 7 days, plus close to a $500 fine, towing and storage fees, points on your licence that hurt you come insurance renewal time, etc.....
(But besides that, it's a fantastic drive up to Whistler)
A radar detector more than pays for itself within about 10-15 minutes on that road.
Even if you were to adhere to the 60km zone you would have traffic at your bumper honking lol
