"Cape Scott, 115 kilometers of wave- and weather-beaten coastline, encompasses every dramatic element of Pacific Northwest geography. Rocky headlands neighbour sandy beaches and protected coves; bogs house sensitive amphibians and plants; and inland, a dense network of towering conifers, ferns, salal and beds of moss define the rainforest. The North Coast Trail winds its way through this paradise, offering hikers beautiful ocean views, wildlife-viewing opportunities and sites steeped in First Nations history. Part trail map, part field guide, part regional history, Cape Scott and the North Coast Trail is the first comprehensive guide to one of Vancouver Island's most iconic destinations, perfect for day trippers, serious backpackers and anyone wanting to learn more about the culture and wildlife of the region,"--page [4] of cover.
