Looking for recommendations for riding British Columbia

I was originally going to take Highway 31 north of Kaslo until drrod pointed out its gravel... I swear the number of great looking gravel and forest service roads I've seen in BC has made me seriously consider getting a dual sport to sit next to my ST!
I took the 31A from Kaslo to New Denver last August. No gravel that I saw. Just very twisty and back country. All pavement 100%. Put Retallack BC (half way point) into Google Maps and look at street view. Beautiful pavement.

Just booked the Chi-Cheemaun ferry here in Ontario to go to Northern Ontario and head west. Leaving June 18.
 
Yeah the 31A is paved, the 31 (north from Kaslo) is gravel for about 75% of the loop to New Denver
Gotchya. I thought you were taking 31A as per what all had suggested. I see now by your map where you intend to go. I checked street view of Trout Lake (half way) and it appeared paved. Doesn't mean that it all is. I don't know any better with regard to 31. Best of luck and safe travels.

A question to Google AI says the gravel on 31 is between Meadow Creek and Trout Lake (as you were aware).
