Love your truck/camper combo. I'd be all over that if we didn't have triplet 7 yr olds in tow lol.
Thanks for the tip about contacting BC Ferries. Excellent idea.
Have you done the run from Prince Rupert on up to Whitehorse? How are the roads during the summer?
Hmmm.....Haida Gwaii is also on my bucket list.

You should check into reservations with BC Ferries ( phone them) about the Port Hardy run up to Prince Rupert. Before you call BC Ferries get the exact measurement of you rigs total length when hooked together, you will need that. You are also over height, not to worry, as they don’t charge you for over height, they just need to know so that when you arrive there is a spot of the ferry where you will fit in height as well as length.
If you don’t have a reservation you will be on standby. At with your rig length you may miss a couple of sailings, or days.
I did Hadia Gwaii last summer from Rupert with reservations so we had no issue, however there were rigs waiting on standby who didn’t get on. Most people want the day time sailing however I think during the summer the South to North sailings are all during the day. However on the ferry run I was on they have night and day sailings, and the night time are not as full as the day time ( on the route I was on anyways) summer time is prime time so don’t waste time call BC Ferries quick like.
Enjoy the ride.
