The definitive guide for hiking in the Canadian Rockies. Hikers affectionately refer to the Canadian Rockies Trail Guide as 'the Bible.' When it was published in 1971, it was the first guidebook with accurate distances and detailed descriptions to the trails of the Canadian Rockies.
Comprehensive guidebook to the hiking trails in Banff, Jasper, Yoho, Kootenay and Waterton Lakes National Parks and the provincial park of Mount Assiniboine and Mount Robson. Of the more than 3400 kilometres of trail contained in these mountain parks, virtually every day hike and backpack of note is described in this volume - a total of nearly 250 individual trips.
About the Author - Local authors and keen hikers Brian Patton and Bart Robinson have lived in the Canadian Rockies for over 30 years. Since the publication of the first edition of the Canadian Rockies Trail Guide, they have written extensively about the natural and human history of the region.
