Early road to the Western Sea linked to Bella Coola valley
The note recalls 1793 explorer Mackenzie reaching the Pacific via Indian trails to the Bella Coola coast. It notes the valley’s 60 mile reach to the sea and a 50 mile inland route with a 3000 foot pass enabling inland access. A 1912 railway survey was halted by war and a 1950 government survey faced board delays before vowing to complete the road regardless of primitiveness.
