What do y'all use for mapping/researching routes? Looking into some stuff in NORTHERN Canada. Trip wouldn't be until next summer.

That sounds like a tough trip to organize. A BDR will be a walk in the park by comparison. Hopefully you’re not including a fire prone area but that can be unpredictable. Bears, bugs, and unknown road conditions will make it challenging enough.

I usually tend to be incredibly overly ambitious and land on something more reasonable.

I still want to get up north but that is a true and proper adventure for all the reasons you mentioned. It's just going to take a lot of time and a lot of talking to a lot of different people. For the fires that means I'll need multiple routes for each section, as well as bail out plans. I'll get it sorted but it's literally going to take me the 18ish mo, and even then who knows.
