Washington Coast Trail
Exploring Washington's Wild Olympic Coast, David Hooper
The Mountaineers, 1993
Price: $10.95
Exploring Washington's Wild Olympic Coast draws a comprehensive portrait
of this precious natural resource while guiding hikers and backpackers
along its 60-mile length. The hikes in this coastwalker's companion begin
at Cape Flattery and extend south to the Queets River, with complete directions,
descriptions, and access points provided for all. Whether done in a day
or linked together for longer trips, these walks are both educational and
enjoyable. For the ultimate coastal experience, camping and leisurely exploring
are a must. Here's how and where without getting outsmarted by the changing
tides. An epilogue on the environmental future of the Olympic Coast reminds
us of our own good fortune in intimately knowing such a wilderness, and
of our responsibility to preserve it for those who have not yet had the
privilege.
