From Nelson down and back to Creston, and then down to Sandpoint. We did not ride the entire designated Selkirk Loop.
We did not get as get as far north as Kaslo and New Denver. You must have ridden further north on one of the other "Super Loops". The Galena Trail looked like a great side trip. I don't think we have finished exploring that country yet, and may just make it there.
Speaking of riding in this area: Has anyone done a northern Cascades loop from:
Sedro Woolley to Omak on Hwy 20,
then north on Hwy 97 to Osoyoos,
then west on Hwy's 3 and 7 back to Sumas
and down Hwy 9 to Sedro Woolley.
It's about 800km's more or less.
That is another loop I'm considering because it goes right past my town of Abbotsford so no destination transport issues.
