Hey guys I’m from Victoria and have done most of my off-roading in the Port Alberni area. I know there use to be a ski field at Green Mountain near Nanaimo. Was wondering if there was anything up there?
It's a beautiful area, but not really suited for wheeling. You can drive the logging roads and get a fair bit of elevation with some decent views, but the double track ends before you get to the old ski area and it becomes essentially walking trails. I think it might have some sort of protected status at the top as well as it contains a fairly unusual ecosystem. On the back side there is a small unmarked lake that had somewhat difficult access last I was there, but quite a nice spot.
