The Hill

I already posted this once but some how messed it up. But I am getting better at this forum honest. Anyway here is my post again:About a year ago I asked this forum about the road leading out of Bella Coola BC. It is a gravel highway called "The Hill" I got lots of responses from people who have traveled it and it just made my commitment to traveling it stronger. Well last fall 2013 me and the the Miss traveled to the Hill and crossed over it. The journey was an exciting and pleasant adventure. I just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone that helped me. The Hill was challenging but certainly worth every minute of preparation. Thanks again to the folks with the first hand knowledge. I remember one comment by one person. He said if I had my choice of driving in Los Angeles or the Hill I would take The Hill every time. Well now I have done both and I certainly agree. Thanks again folks your great!

When we went on it, at the bottom, my wife got out and kissed the ground. I didn't see any problem.

No but I would have had to get out to clean up my pants:)

That looks a lot like some of our better roads here in Idaho. The
best part is when you meet another vehicle,
