We welcome those who enjoy using their four-wheel-drive vehicle to explore and discover beautiful places. If you have no experience driving your 4x4 ' off-road' in difficult or rough terrain and want to gain knowledge and experience in a friendly, knowledgeable, and safe environment, this is the event for you.
These monthly runs cover beginner trails and light intermediate trails. Generally, there will be two groups leading runs: one for new drivers and another for intermediate drivers. All the usual trails are stock 4x4 accessible, although because 4x4s vary so much in clearance, length, and angles, some may involve dents and scrapes for some vehicles. Run leaders will assess your rigs before starting out to ensure the trails you run are suitable for what you want to do and are comfortable with.
Meetup at 9:30 in the parking lot of the Weaver Creek Spawning Channel (17780 Morris Valley Rd, Agassiz, BC V0M 1A1) for introductions, air-down, and safety talk before heading out for Hale Creek, and other potential destinations such as Skwellepil Creek, Francis Lake, Sunrise Lake, or North Chehalis. Depending on the turnout, we may break into smaller groups with a choice of destinations.
Participants may leave the group any time they like, but please be sure to inform one of the run leaders before you do. Expect the group to return to the hatchery by around 4:00 PM.
One of the goals of these runs is to help you determine what equipment, tools, and accessories you need; nobody should feel they aren't "properly equipped" to attend. We recommend, but do not require, that you have the following:
Suitable tires, with good tread
Full-size spare and jack for your vehicle
Tire gauge, compressor, and plug kit
Work gloves
Common sense
and, most importantly, bring a good attitude.
Communications (optional, but recommended):
LMR 4WDABC channel 2 (Lower Mainland)
Ham 146.460MHz (ham qualification and callsign required)
FRS/GMRS channel 4, privacy code 0 (or off)
CB channel 4
(see 4wdabc.ca/communications)
During these runs, our members and volunteers will clean up these sites, clear brush, repair structures, and remove garbage. You are welcome to participate.
This is a family-friendly, drug- and alcohol-free event. Well-behaved dogs are welcome, but please ensure they're kept under control.
Note: the run may be rescheduled or cancelled depending on weather and road conditions; we strongly recommend RSVPing ON THE WEBSITE at https://4wdabc.ca/event/hale-may-2026/ so we can contact you in case there are changes, and please check back here before heading out.
