Lots and lots of long, hard, technical climbs. You better have lungs and cardio cause they are super punishing if not. VERY rooty and technical with quick, steep and fast downs. Great trail, but very physically demanding.

Access Info

Gravel path on the left side of the road just before the gates to the DFO (Department of Fisheries and Oceans). Go up for about 200m and then a path perpendicular to the quad trail is the start to Subnet long. Subnet short is accessible via the gravel road in the far left corner of the DFO parking lot. Follow it up until it gets flat and open and the trail entrance is on the right just before an orange post.

This trail is unsanctioned.

Traditionally Indigenous Territory

      Lots of roots and technical uphill or side hills. Awesome times! Tricky climbs in the rain.
