Occupying the 500-mile space between the 49th parallel and Alaska, the BC coast complicated itself into some twenty thousand miles of intricately entwined inlets, islands and channels. It boasts a maritime wilderness beyond measure, as well as the world's most treacherous ocean graveyard and the most enchanting inland sea. It is a land of ancient, crumbling totem poles and humming high-speed ferries, of towering, desolate fjords and vibrant, modern resorts. Thanks to the world's most highly developed ferry system you can explore the BC coast in comfort with your vehicle. This book is divided into nine chapters covering the coast's main geographic regions. Each begins with a brief overview, then takes you through the area from one end to the other. It is a thorough and practical travel guide carefully organized and laid out in an easy-to-use format and the authors have spared no effort to make sure you have all the background information you need to make the most of your coastal explorations.
