My parents used to have a place in the Bella Coola valley back in the mid 80's. I still have memories of when the road was dirt all the way from Williams Lake. My dad scared the pants off me going down The Hill. "Look over the edge at the view!" as the truck seems to drift right up to the edge.
👍Thanks for the memories of Bella Coola and Anaheim. I was on the “Hill” 2 summers ago going up and down. It’s definitely scenic and should be on everyone’s bucket list. But not as challenging as other main roads I’ve been on. The road that comes to mind is Mission Hill north of Seton Portage!! And the Loon “call” …always reminds of my days living quietly by our lake outside of 100 Mile House! Stay safe!!
We did the trip to Bella Coola this summer in my truck. It would have been informative if you stated what the grades are. The camera definitely flattens the hill and doesn’t look that impressive, which it definitely is.
Good point. Off hand, I'm not sure what the stats are, and I don't know if I could cite them as I'm riding them, but it would be worthwhile for viewers if I were to research and be able to provide the data. Something else for improvement for future videos.
Have you ridden "The Hill?" Would you want to? Leave a comment.

Definitely a great part of my trip. Thanks for watching to the end.
The gas station in Tatla is always closed. If you hit it open you won the lottery.

No, but I will!
The music ruined it
I'd much rather hear your bike
