Giant Cedars, White Sands

 by Donald C. Mills

This book includes a colour contour map of the Juan de Fuca Marine Trail, information on how to prepare for the trek, and a description of the 47-km trek. You will also find details on interesting trail features, difficult sections, camping spots, tides, day-hiking options, overnight-backpacking trips, and unmarked side trails (useful for exiting to your favourite B&B for the night).

Quote from the book:

"Walking along the edge of high cliffs or on rocky reef shelves will give you that incredible feeling of being close to nature. Enjoy the breathtaking views from the Trail. Across the Juan de Fuca Strait the majestic snow-capped Olympic Mountains of Washington State, USA will add to the feeling of being in a place where time and space seem infinite." -- Donald C. Mills
