Trail Overview
Whitebottom Road is an 11.8-mile scenic, multi-use route following the Skeena River near Terrace, British Columbia. Popular with campers, hunters, anglers, and offroaders, it provides easy access to the river's gravel bars, primitive dispersed campsites, and several more challenging offshoot trails.
The road features minimal elevation changes and is generally suitable for high-clearance vehicles, exhibiting minor rutting, potholes, washboard surfaces, and small washouts. Because the route operates as an active logging mainline, visitors must watch for heavy industrial traffic and expect changing road conditions.
Difficulty
Minor rutting, potholes, washboard, and small washouts along rough.
Access Description
This route serves as an active logging mainline. Users must yield to logging trucks and heavy machinery, and using a CB radio to monitor active hauling channels is highly recommended. Road maintenance is tied directly to logging activity; when operations cease, the road surface can quickly deteriorate with potholes, washboarding, and minor washouts.
