Written by Mary Ann Snowden. Published by Rocky Mountain Books, 2005. Description: |
| For the experienced and novice alike, this guide to paddling the
Barkley and Clayoquot Sounds leads paddlers through some of the best kayaking
waters on the west coast of Vancouver Island. Twenty trips are outlined in this
pocket-sized book, covering prime paddling destinations within the sounds,
including the Deer Group, the Broken Group Islands, and Vargas, Flores and
Meares islands. Each trip is headed with important information on tides, currents, safety considerations and launching. Included in each route description is practical information on the different land jurisdictions, campsites, suitable landings and paddling conditions. Sidebars embellish the history of shipwrecks, examine the Nuu-chah-nulth people and introduce interesting characters like Salal Joe and Fred Tibbs. Others detail some of the natural history of the west coast with topics ranging from grey whales to barnacles. This edition also provides well-researched information on the parks in the area, including Pacific Rim National Park and several parks within the B.C. Parks system.
