4 out of 5 stars The Classic Guide to Vancouver Paddling   September 2, 2003
Thomas O'Keefe (Seattle, WA United States)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

While this book is now somewhat dated (published in 1984) and out of print, it still remains the classic comprehensive guide to whitewater paddling opportunities on Vancouver Island. This book does not describe the creek runs that have been discovered in the last few years and some of the drops mentioned as unrunnable are now routinely paddled. It does however provide a comprehensive guide to all the classic runs that were originally pioneered in long fiberglass boats. These are still great rivers. The guide covers 22 different runs and ocean surfing sites. These include runs on the following rivers: Koksilah, Cowichan, Chemainus, Nanaimo, Campbell, White, Adam, Eve, Davie-Nimpkish, Nimpkish, Marble, and Gold. Also included are logistics for ocean surfing at the Jordan River mouth, beaches near Tofino (Wickaninnish Beach, Long Beach, Cox Bay), and San Josef Bay. While the book is old, the rivers maps are excellent and as long as you can calibrate your frame of reference appropriately the guide will give you a good idea of what each river is like.
