I think it was John Grace who once said "It's all just training for British Columbia". He was referring to the super challenging creeking and multi day wilderness whitewater trips that are located all over this mountainous province. There is a lifetime worth of easy and intermediate paddling too. Whether it is multi day ocean trips, winter whitewater paddling on Vancouver Island, surfing tidal rapids, creeking in the interior, remote trips up north BC offers it all and then some.

Wood Bridge to Campground
Flatbed Creek - One 10 foot waterfall and a couple of smaller drops with fun rapids in between
Bullmoose Creek to Bridge
Wolverine River - The put in is on the Bullmoose Creek near the confluence with the Wolverine River. The run is a playful class II run with one class III. In high water it will turn to be more of a class III run through the lower section. This is a great next step river due to it's short and non-committing nature.
Main Run
Bullmoose Creek - Slowly builds to continuous class 2+ bolder gardens. The listed rapids are worth scouting. The stair case can be run blind in lower water but creates some sticky holes in higher water. Even if you know the run, the staircase tends to sneak up on you.
South Grizzly FSR to Murray FSR
Kinuso Creek - The run starts out as a slow float then slowly builds to class II boulder gardens.
Tumbler Ridge to East Pine.
Murray River - Remote trip 120km trip down the beautiful Murray Valley.
Upper Multi Day
Wapiti River - The upper wapiti is a remote scenic multi day trip, it iss a 2 to 3 day trip. It's 65km to Belcourt Creek. Then another 60km to Wapiti Gardens. Hiring a river boat pick up is an option to shorten the flat water.
Campsite to Flare Stack
Murray River - This section of the Murray river is a mellow float with lots of good features to improve beginner's skills. This section has a bridge half way that can be used to shorten the run.
