So many places and so much info.

What do you want to do. Car camp, hike, ski tour. Mountains, water, lake, river, forest. With snow, without snow?

There are tons of places, most of them BC forrest service sites. Your best bet is to get a BC Backroads map book. They have a ton of info on out of the way campsites etc. http://www.backroadmapbooks.com

Some of my favs,

20 mile bay on Harrison (can get pretty busy)
Harrison West FSR to Lillooett (Hot springs)
Callaghan Lake near Whistler
Cal-Cheak BCFS site near Whistler

try and have at least one nights supply of dry wood if you're going in the winter. that way anything you gather you can dry around the first nights fire

I never rely on gathering wood...too risky
