I use an app called avenza on android. The app is free but you have to pay like $25 for the backroads map pack. It's well worth it because it will track you offline, and you can drop pins where cool shit is.

I don't use this for trails though, I use it to find camp spots and other cool stuff.

That's great! It's a beautiful place isn't it? Was there many people camping there?

Any gas station should have it.

One of your first trips should be to the red creek fir. The road will slightly challenge your suv and it's the largest douglas fir in Canada.

There are tons of cool little camp spots and other areas that you can find just by driving back roads and looking for ways down to the lakes or rivers.

You dont need to do serious 4x4ing to get to some awesome spots.

Enjoy!

If you plan on driving your 2020 rav4 on trails like hill 60, I would greatly reconsider.

If I were you, I'd buy a backroads map book and just cruise main logging roads and the odd side road. You can still find some pretty cool stuff without beating the hell out of your brand new suv.

A toyota rav4 is a fantastic vehicle, but it's not meant for actual 4x4 trails.

To me it's not worth beating on my daily driver. Everytime I do go to a place like hill 60 I come back with scratches and other little damages.
