The Skeena
Yuka Abe is married to a Canadian and lives full-time in a van. The Japanese mountain biker recently took a trip to Smithers and documented the experience on YouTube.
She loved it.
“There are so many interesting features and they are all one of a kind! A skinny waterfall, a plane drop, and a very very sketchy step-up! This is a great playground,” she explains.
“That trail is crazy,” one commenter writes. “I wish we had something like that here where I live.”
Don’t let Abe’s small size or whimsical narration fool you. She’s a serious rider, at one point hitting a huge gap that looks like a “black hole.”
“That was a bit sketchy,” she says laughingly. Watch the full video here.
