If ever a landslide or avalanche occurs between Porteau Cove and Vancouver or Porteau Cove and Sqaumish, the BC Government could send in a ferry to detour cars around the slide to Darrell Bay Terminal in Squamish or to Horseshoe Bay in West Vancouver. Since slides occur so rarely on the Sea-to-sky Highway, the dock is open to the public as a promenade wharf.

  • Does anybody know the depth of the water at the end of the ferry dock?
