(Greg) Lake Cowichan to Port Alberni

articular, can be miserable due to the dust.
2 routes from Lake Cowichan to Port Alberni - one via Museum Main, and the other via the more commonly used Nitinat and Franklin junction. I have not taken the Museum Main route for close on 3 years now. The track does not include the short side trip into Lake Nitinat (recommended), but you'll see a sign for that at the junction. The Museum Main option gets significantly more remote.
