A guide to 46 high routes and alpine traverses in the Coast Mountains
Coast Mountain High Routes is a guide to 46 summer high routes and alpine traverses in the Coast Mountains. These are the great skyline traverses - off-trail hikes through large remote mountainous regions, continuously in the alpine, and a bit like being on a summit for an entire trip. With elements of thru-hiking, backpacking and mountaineering, you carry your camp on your back, never retrace your steps, and travel over terrain that is always new. All of the routes venture through wilderness regions.
Combined, the routes cover an area that stretches across the width of the Coast Mountains from the deep coastal inlets to the high grasslands of the Chilcotin and span a 600km stretch of the mountains, known as the Pacific Ranges, which lie between Vancouver and Bella Coola, and comprise the southern third of the Coast Mountains.
In some ways the guide is more like a coffee table book with up to a dozen 5"x7" photographs of each high route.
