No other Canadian River imbues such a strong mystic and culturally provocative story as the Missinaibi. A powerfully charged, undeveloped river, paddlers can follow this historic and culturally important waterway from Lake Superior to James Bay. Prior to the release of the first edition guidebook in 1994, the difficulty of the river and the inaccuracy of the topographic maps led to the death of an average of 2-3 people every year. Since the release of the guidebook there have been no fatalities on the river. The detailed rapids drawings are classified according to the International River Grading System -- as all of our books adhere to. Also included in this guidebook is the Little Missinaibi River loop route -- a must see for those interested in Native lore and history. A note about all of Hap Wilson's Guidebooks: Although these are field-friendly travel guidebooks, they are written and illustrated to charm and fascinate the couch-traveler as well. For help on selecting routes, or about current guided trips taking place in any one of these Canadian guidebook favorites, please feel free to contact the author(s) as listed with each title.
