Thanks for the info, Matt, I'll look them up.
It's been decades since I was last on VI, when my parents lived in Chemainus for a few years, and I didn't take my 4x4 over at that time, so I have no experience on trails over there. There is a publisher that has "B.C. Backroads" books out, I'm sure they'll have one for the island.
Just went out to the TB and checked my seatback pockets. One of the books had a list inside, and they do have a Vancouver Island edition, "Backroad Mapbook: Vancouver island", ISBN 0-9697877-2-3 (v. 3) These books give logging roads, multi-use trails, lake and river fishing spots, paddling routes, and wilderness campsites, with a nice little write-up on each one. Well worth the $20 or so cost.
