from let's say burnaby to whistler is about 2 hours drive, then whistler to pemberton is only 25 mins (the fun starts there), then from pemberton to cache creek is about 2 to 3 hours, we usually stop for scenery so u better plan a little bit more time there, plus there will be a section with 8 to 10 "one lane bridge", quite scary if u are not ready, going 60 into a corner then u find out u have to stop for opposite traffic

from cache creek to kamloops will be boring, watch for speed trap; when u get close to vernon i think u will have some fun (this longest route was taken many years ago, but most of the whistler / pemberton / cache creek / kelowna / hope route i have taken at least once a year, usually u can start at 8am and get back to vancouver by 9pm, if u make the extra stop to kelowna for dinner, then maybe 1am and kinda rushing thru it too); most of the way from vernon to hope will be fun....

if u do the basic whistler / pemberton / cache creek / kamloops / hope route u can finish within one day, but u are planning for a few stops, then i have done 2 to 3 days trip too...

derek: according to google map, it says 11xxkm; about 15 hours of driving; i remember i have done that route in 2 days and i put 12xxkm onto the rental ~ strongly suggest ppl drives rental car, you won't believe how dirty the car could be

for my easter get away, i put 1646km onto the rental; started off about 100km in town for the first day (went to pick up my friend at tsawwassen), then we started off from my house (bby near metrotown), to pick up a friend in coq near lougheed mall, another friend at chilliwack, then up coquihalla to kelowna for wine tasting (so we drove around in k-town for the day); next morning we headed to kamloops for lunch and then cache creek / lillooet / pemberton, dropped off our luggage then head to whistler for dinner, and back to pemberton for the nite (yeah, abusing the mileage on the rental lol)...

last day we went back to whistler for lunch, then coquitlam / richmond etc lol...it's so fun when the car is not urs ;)

caffie: the first time i went, it wasn't really planned; i just kinda knew the way around and follow the road signs, it was a one day trip; then after that i started planning sth else to do and to try, it's always better if u can go with 4 ppl and other ppl can drive too (yet i love driving so it's always me driving)

btw, last but not least, a warning for ppl who is planning to take this route should have ur car's brake / tires checked and it's always good to head up from whistler to kamloops because there was a section that is so steep, i tried to floor a matrix / mazda 6 it wouldn't even go pass 40kph; when i made this trip in opposite direction, i had to lock the tranny in 2nd gear and it would still go down very fast, u will smell everyone is cooking their brakes pretty bad and it's not fun if u have lost your brake or if your engine's condition wouldn't let u make up such a steep slope and break down!
