An update was needed for Volume II after recent fire damage to some trails. In most cases, the trails have been remarked, but a couple were dropped and replaced. WE ADDED A NEW SECTION ABOUT HIKING IN BURNED FORESTS. In this revised volume are many new photos!
Another Comprehensive Hiking Book of the Kamloops Region!
Explore 28 hikes that take you to the highest mountain in the area, see caves, arches, a whole village of hoodoos, a tower, volcanic crater, ancient catastrophic landslides, dramatic sheer cliffs, commanding 360-degree views, big trees, burned forests, chocolate lillies, and more–all within a 60 minute drive from downtown Kamloops.
Kamloops Backcountry Hikes Volume II Second Edition is another excellent resource for resident and visiting hikers because of concise maps, easy-to-follow directions, stunning photos, and climate information that helps you prepare for a safe, smart and fulfilling experience on the trail. Included are seasonal tips, wildlife safety, geological information, hiking through burned forests, plus a glossary, emergency contacts and more.
Since 2008, Al and Mairi Budreau have hiked around Kamloops, gathering and recording information from hundreds of Kamloops backcountry miles. Both from Ontario, the Budreaus’ mutual love of nature has brought together their talents of land surveying, photography, art, graphic design and writing into this practical and easy-to-use guide.
