The beautiful mountains of the North Shore define Vancouver, but few Vancouverites know of the natural beauty and adventure that lies within them. The Glorious Mountains of Vancouver’s North Shore: A Peakbagger’s Guide offers something for everyone, from casual hikers to hard-core climbers, to parents introducing their children to the splendours of nature, and to those merely curious about what is out there, so close and yet so far.

The most complete published collection of traditional names of North Shore mountains (and islands, streams, and other sites), including the names, uses, and legends of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh/Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh, and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm/Musqueam First Nations, whose traditional territories are profiled.
Little-known secrets of the North Shore mountains, including history, waterfalls, old growth trees, old logging camps, mines, plane crashes, geocaches, and cached whisky.
