WILDERNESS RIVERS of MANITOBA JOURNEY BY CANOE THROUGH the LAND WHERE THE SPIRIT LIVES

Not just prairie fields and grain elevators, Manitoba owns some of Canada's hottest canoeing rivers in North America. From prairie fringe where prickly-pear cactus grows to arctic tundra and the largest concentration of beluga whales and polar bears dwell, the wilderness rivers of Manitoba offer a diverse collection of adventure possibilities. Four years of exhaustive research and cartography went in to producing this classic guidebook, detailed right down to the last boulder in every rapid. Routes are graded by environmental zone and proximity to Winnipeg, for the level of difficulty and remoteness, and general risk factor. Maps are detailed, illustrating classification of rapids, running channels, portages and campsites. Planning logistics are also made simple with a current listing of available services and outfitters. Fourteen river descriptions including information on Woodland Caribou Provincial Park in Ontario, Atikaki Wilderness Park in Manitoba, Bloodvein/Hayes and Seal Heritage Rivers. 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.
