(From
the back cover): "The Kenai Canoe Trails is an accurate and informative
guide to one of the great canoeing systems and national wilderness treasures
of the United States. Mr. Quick has written the definitive work on this
pristine area. It is destined to become a classic field guide and planning
resource for canoeists, hunters, ice fishermen, Nordic skiers, in fact
anyone that travels this system of lakes and trails. I doubt that I will
ever enter the area again without having a copy of this book close at hand."
Rick Johnston - Park Ranger/Pilot Kenai National Wildlife Refuge
  Every
lake and trail of this wilderness system is illustrated by aerial photomaps.
These maps are unique to this book and represent the most informative
charting of this are of Alaska yet available. Over 170 campsites are
identified. Trail length, lake depths, water profiles, fish species, plus
many other fascinating details are included, drawing from the author's
personal experiences and official records dating back to the early 1960's.
This is a "must have" for any adventure library.
