This new, full-colour edition of one of RMB's bestselling hiking guides has been completely updated and redesigned for a whole new generation of hiking enthusiasts. Trekking the Continental Divide from the U.S. border to Kakwa Lake is a demanding adventure. In this new edition of the bestselling guidebook devoted to Canada's 1,200-kilometre Great Divide Trail (GDT), Dustin Lynx helps hikers piece together the myriad individual routes that form a continuous trail along the Divide.

Not only are these trail segments invaluable for planning shorter trips along the GDT, Lynx's pre-trip planning advice will also prove indispensable for long-distance hikers overcoming such daunting logistical challenges as resupply, navigation and access. Complete with colour photos, detailed maps and updated information, Hiking Canada's Great Divide - 3rd Edition will continue to serve domestic and international hikers alike in navigating this remarkable mountain wilderness trail.
