Synopsis

Begin a journey among orcas and iguanas. Explore a special place, a hidden coast, a private preserve of those who paddle. Enjoy the wet, sunny world of the Pacific Coast, from Alaska's Prince William Sopund to Mexico's La Manzanilla, all from the intimate perspective of the sea kayaker. The Hidden Coast is an enticing confirmation of the kayaking experience. It is as much a book for the lover of rugged wilderness, sea otters, and mangrove swamps, as it is for the experienced paddler. Aughor Joel Rogers is a widely published outdoor photographer and writer. His stunning photographs are complemented by essays that are a rich blend of place, history, reflection, and adventure. The book's most lasting contribution to sea kayaking, apart from the spotlight it plays on this beautiful shore, is its sustained enthusiasm for West Coast kayaking... Just wing the spotlight up or down the shore a few miles, and there's another inlet to explore or another wave-swept beach to wander. Locations explored include Johnstone Strait, Nootka Sound, Cape Meares, Shi Shi Beach, Prince William Sound, Baja California, Queen Charlotte Islands, Willapa Bay, San Francisco Bay, La Manzanilla, Heceta Head, the Skagit River, Chichagof Island, Punta Gorda, and Anacapa Island.
