Written by Mary Ann Snowden. Published by Rocky Mountain Books, 2005. Description: |
| For the experienced and novice alike, this comprehensive guide
leads paddlers through some of the best kayaking waters on the west coast of
Vancouver Island. Twenty trips are outlined, covering prime paddling
destinations within Barkley and Clayoquot 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 BC Parks system. |
