There's fsr's and railbeds everywhere!
In a region full of mountains and a thriving forestry industry, the Kootenays are just covered in Forest Serevice Roads and old mining tracks.
So, here’s how the maps works. Everything is based on the type of riding surface. Colour-coded for your convenience! Green is paved, Blue is unpaved, and Red is spicy! Spicy bits are unpaved but either more technical or has something on it that may be trickier for some rider/bike combinations. I’m never going to make assumptions about your skill level or enthusiasm, you know you. Always ride to what you’re comfortable with.
There are waypoints for Camping, fuel, beer, motels, motorcycle shops, food, and cool places to see.
