A four-day loop around the Rossland Range from Castlegar, stitching the historic Columbia & Western rail grade, Bulldog Tunnel included, to gravel climbs and singletrack descents on the 1864 Dewdney Trail. History rides along the whole way, from gold-rush rail lines to the Doukhobor story told at the Discovery Centre near the finish. Plenty of climbing, guaranteed hike-a-bike, and a riverside singletrack finale above the Columbia.
