These are the great skyline traverses - off-trail hikes through large remote mountainous regions, continuously in the alpine, and a bit like being on a summit for an entire trip. With elements of thru-hiking, backpacking and mountaineering, you carry your camp on your back, never retrace your steps, and travel over terrain that is always new. All of the routes venture through wilderness regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCombined, the routes cover an area that stretches across the width of the Coast Mountains from the deep coastal inlets to the high grasslands of the Chilcotin and span a 600km stretch of the mountains, known as the Pacific Ranges, which lie between Vancouver and Bella Coola, and comprise the southern third of the Coast Mountains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn some ways the guide is more like a coffee table book with up to a dozen 5\"x7\" photographs of each high route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e46 summer high routes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoute descriptions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrip planning information\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDifficulty ratings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoutes range from 3 days to 3 weeks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2700 km of routes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e421 days of routes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eDetailed digital waypoints for all of the routes can be viewed and downloaded as a kml file from a detailed map at Caltopo.com. The waypoints have been digitized from Google Earth.
