Review
A single trail guide for all of Southwestern British Columbia? In a region where craggy peaks and alpine lakes abound, it might seem an impossible undertaking. But the authors have successfully showcased most of Southern British Columbia's most awe-inspiring trails, all in one handy volume. From Pemberton and Lytton in the north to the U.S. border, and from Sechelt in the west to Keremeos in the east, 103 Hikes conveniently covers a vast and magnificent region. For each destination, vehicle approach and points of historical and natural interest are noted, along with a trail summary of distance, elevation gain, time estimation, and an illustrated route. You learn, for instance, that Unnecessary Mountain earned its name because it stood in the way of historical climbers and their beloved East and West Mount Lions, or why it the complex of pools that includes Garibaldi Lake appears to have no outlet (lava beds permit a subterranean discharge). With at-your-fingertips access to such fine places as Singing Pass, Burnt Stew Lake, and the "Musical Bumps," you'll be on your way to enjoyment of some of the finest hiking in the province.
