Mikes Backpacking and,
Fishing web page.
Welcome to my site, it is dedicated to Backpacking, Fishing and mtn biking/ cycle touring. Hopefully the page will be constantly changing so please come again. There will hopefull be a section on cycling the Kettle Valley railway line in the near future.
General list, many items deleted to suit needs of trip. I do tend to pack on the heavy side, prefering comfort over weight savings. I have no problems carrying 60 pounds for a 12 to 14 day trip.
My Hiking gear list:
The Stein Valley:
The Stein valley is located near Lytton B.C. in the Fraser Canyon, apx 2 - 3 hours drive North of Vancouver. Details and advice from my hike through the lower Stein Valley and from Ponderosa Creek to Cottonwood Creek via the Victoria Ridge route.
