This guide covers the US states of Washington, Oregon and Alaska, and Canadian British Columbia and the Yukon. It provides accounts of what to do in Portland, Seattle and Vancouver, including critical first-hand reviews of hotels, restaurants, clubs and bars. Information is given on how to reach Alaska, whether by driving the Alaska Highway from Dawson Creek to Fairbanks or by making the memorable ferry trip from Prince Rupert to Skagway. This book also features guidance into the Great Outdoors - trekking through the scorched landscape of Mount St Helens, exploring the Olympic and Mount Rainier National Parks, and hiking the Chilkoot from Alaska into the Yukon.
