Description
Algonquin Park is a near-North paradise of 3,500 square miles of forests, lakes and rivers atop the rugged Canadian Shield. Easily accessible from dozens of major U.S. and Canadian population centers, this idyllic haven from urban life offers a wealth of opportunities for exploration. The fourth edition of The Explorer's Guide to Algonquin Park is an updated and expanded culmination of Michael Runtz's decades-long observations and photography of the park's wildlife. With informative prose and award-winning wildlife photography, this guidebook celebrates one of Canada's most treasured parks while providing practical information for visitors. New features include full-color maps with access routes, hiking trails, and canoe routes, as well as points of historical interest, a section on climate change, and new chapters on butterflies, odonates, and wildflowers. With its expanded coverage of park facilities and services, this guide is suitable for both first-time visitors and seasoned explorers.
