Itinerary description

This trail starts on Krumm Road in Thornhill and will take you all the way to Kitimat by going through Thunderbird and down through Whitebottom. I only mapped the lesser know part of the trail, where I stopped is where the trail opens up to a well used logging road and you can just continue on down Saunders road to Kitimat or Onion Lake Ski Trails or Lakelse Lake. The Whitebottom to Kitimat section can be driven with a 4x4 and or ATV. The section from Krumm Road to Whitebottom can only be done by an ATV and maybe a SxS.
