Hey guys, new to the site and exploring these backroads in general. My friend showed me the Island Timberlands blog about their gates being open for recreational use on the weekends. My friend knows where some of the gates are, but I was particularly interested in the Shawnigan gate because it's close by; my parents are in town for the weekend and I thought it'd be fun to take a quick drive and do a little exploring with my old man one morning.
This discussion is the only reference I've been able to find on the internet about the location of the gate. Where exactly on Waters Rd is the Island Timberlands gate? I tried street view on google maps and didn't see it, but the street view images were from 2012 so maybe it wasn't in yet?
Any help would be much appreciated. My dad's really looking forward to some exploring.
Thanks BeRadical! Found it and had a great day checking out the area. Even found our way to Lois Lake!
