Itinerary
During the Covid -19, in order to protect our everyone we will be starting at 9:30 from our trailhead on the Birkenhead River Road also called Birkenhead FSR. This allows us to minimize the number of people you will come into contact with.
Please make sure you have these directions downloaded or printed out, since you will be out of cell contact once you leave Mt Currie.
From Whistler follow Highway 99 North straight thru the stop light in Pemberton to Mt Currie. Do not make the right turn at the little white church in Mt Currie to follow Highway 99. Continue straight on, over the railway tracks headed for D’Arcy.
16 k down the road you will take a left turn on a dirt road onto Old Portage Road and immediately cross the railroad tracks. Continue up the road for about 1km and you will see a big tree in the middle of the road with a sign saying Birkenhead River Road, turn left in front of the tree with the blue arrow. Continue up the Birkenhead River Road (Birkenhead Forest Service Road)under the power lines, just after you go under the power lines you will see a pull out on your left, park there, that is our trailhead.
