I was told that if you get a ride to Williams you just walk over to the road in and "you" would get a ride...I was told this by 2 women of the Bella Coola Nuxalk Band so, I got a ride, walked over, got a ride from Holly Wood for about 5 miles, got out and started walking, I next got a ride from 3 natives (I sat in back with the grandma who couldn't speak English), then I walked more, then I got a ride from a mother, her son and his girlfriend, then I walked a lot and slept under a tractor and got sprayed with red dust fire repellent, which started my new day of walking through 6 forest fires, got a few more rides and got a ride from a woman on her way back from Africa then walked for 34 hours in all...and got my last ride from a Nuxalk who was going home for a potlatch and invited me. I spent 6 weeks in Bella Coola and saw a host of eagles, pink bear poop, ate organic food and walked 5-10 miles a day
