Be careful of the cokahalla highway. Thats the only worst spot on that whole trip... all i can say is... drive safe... and make sure you have a full tank of gas.

The coquihalla has been dry for the past 3 weeks! You shouldn't have any bad weather this time of the year.

Unless you are a terrible driver, road conditions won't be a factor. But look out for rock chips. I have a massive crack on my windshield from a roadtrip in February.

Begin of May youre pushing it..end of May will be fine. Rogers pass might have some snow still, and hopefully things dry up near Van because the highway was closed 100kms east of Van due to mudslides.Originally posted by Team_Mclaren
