We just got home last night at midnight from Nitinaht. What a looooong trip. Tons of fun and pics to post once we get caught up.

Detailed directions can be found here: http://nitinaht.ca/howto.htm (click on the link for Northern Route or Southern Route for the step by step info)

Basically, catch ferry from Tsawassen to either Swartz Bay (Victoria) or Nanaimo. Seems like the least amount of miles is to catch the ferry to Nanaimo and not have to make the drive down to Victoria then back up to Duncan.

Go to Duncan, follow signs to Youbou, follow bumpy gravel road to Nitinaht. I have not tried the northern route through Port Alberni but the southern route through Youbou is pretty straight forward. Plan on about an hour and a half of dirt road for the last leg from Youbou in.

Tony
