You guys should start booking trips to up north. lots of access up there. theris to many people now in the lower mainland what do you expect everything to be a garbage dump like the vedder. if they opened the roads all you would get is teenagers trashing the place.

Sounds like the road is reopened but only to the pass which makes me wonder how they have prevented access past the pass. 

If it is the river with no bridge then it can easily be bypassed once water level drops.

Mother Nature did that! Should be 10 - 15 feet of snow there at this time of year.

Sweet!  Hopefully people will be responsible and not cause the re-gating of the area.

Lots of backcountry users are irresponsible in leaving their garbage, deliberately dumping it and just do not care about natural resources and environment. It is bad enough that the province promotes logging in all areas as much as they do.
I respect all types of backcountry & rec users but many of the "typical piston heads" seem to be more careless with what they leave behind. It does not take much to carry out what you carry in. Most fishermen understand, respect and do that. Unfortunately, other fellow backcountry users see it differently.
I have accessed the Indian River by mountain bike - it's a great way to travel light and be flexible in getting access. I am planning to go again in a couple of months and float down the river...
