Vancouver to Whitehorse via Vancouver Island?
Mods I'm re-posting this over here. I forgot we have a Canada forum. Getting a very late start in planning this year for our summer trip. I'm thinking of taking our 34 ft fifth wheel from Vancouver...

We booked a sailing on the New Ferry from Port Hardy to Bella Coola ( The Northern Sea Wolf) for the end of June.
We now have a truck and camper ( sold the 35’ 5th Wheel) and that Truck / Camper total length is 24’. That sailing from Port Hardy to Bella Coola cost us $827.00, one way.
Last year we did Prince Rupert / Hadia Gwaii ( round trip) with the same truck and camper and that ferry ride (s) cost us $800 total for both rides, plus an extra $110 for the cabin on the return night sailing, ferry travel is not cheap, but the scenery is to die for.
Also longer rigs including trucks with longer trailers / 5th wheels have to be backed on the ferry going between Haida Gwaii and Prince Rupert, not sure about the ferry from Port Hardy to Rupert.
Saying all that it is still worth the cost in my way of thinking.
Soup.
