Bad hike recommendations September 7, 2008 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Worst recommendation of a hike in any hiking book I've ever read. The book recommended a hike to Mt. Strachan in the Cypress ski area, on a trail that was terrible. Completely overgrown in places, unsigned in crucial places, blowdown to the point that you might as well have been bushwhacking, etc. We finally gave up and went up the ski area road, a much better option not mentioned in the book.
Directions to the Garibaldi Lake trailhead were poor.
I'm tossing this book.
