BC Parks recently posted this on their Cape Scott page . . . 
Please note, as of November 20, 2014:
Due to recent storm events and high water levels, the North Coast Trail section (Nissen Bight to Shushartie Bay) of the park is closed as the cable car crossings on the Strandby and Nahwitti Rivers are inoperable. Please check back for updated information as assessments and repairs are completed. The trails in the western end of the Park (San Josef Bay, Eric Lake, Nels Bight, Nissen Bight, and Guise Bay areas) remain open. All campers and hikers must be prepared for extremely cold and wet conditions.
