This is the latest edition of Anchorages and Marine Parks. It contains a special section on Haida Gwaii and like its predecessors, it also provides details of the popular and useful anchorages throughout the Pacific Northwest. It includes easy references to the Gulf Islands National Park Reserve and in addition to the Gulf Islands. It covers the San Juan Islands, Desolation Sound, the Broughton Islands and places south to north along the way between these destinations, as well as the main waterways to the southern tip of Alaska. Like its companion guide Docks and Destinations, it returns south via the West Coast of Vancouver Island, featuring Quatsino, Kyuquot, Nootka, Clayoquot and Barkley sounds. Numerous maps and diagrams include descriptive icons showing the most recommended anchorages, coves and bays, so that at a glance it is possible to determine where to drop the hook overnight. The information is provided in a user-friendly format enabling the reader to readily see where they have been and where they are going in relation to other stops. The pages take the mariner from one anchorage to the next in a successive, geographic progression.
"The pictures, waypoints, small and large area charts, and chart numbers are extremely helpful."
