Description

Children have "certainly altered my camping life," writes Jayne Seagrave in this latest addition to her popular camping series. She rises to the challenge, however, and with this detailed guide, so will many other camping enthusiasts who feel deterred by the prospect of camping with kids.

 

Seagrave covers it all, from camping while pregnant to camping with pre-teens. Her guide features the best government-owned campgrounds in BC as well as a small selection in Alberta, each entry providing historical, environmental and recreational information. She offers candid, first-hand experiences and practical tips on what to bring, what to expect at each campground, how to avoid potential hazards, and the ins and outs of the reservation system.

About the author

Born in the UK, Jayne Seagrave immigrated to Canada in the late 1980s and soon discovered a love of camping. Since becoming parents in 1999, Jayne and her husband have taken their two sons on trips to over one hundred campsites in BC, Alberta, and Yukon. Jayne is the author of the hugely popular guidebook Camping British Columbia and Yukon: A Complete Guide to National, Provincial, and Territorial Campgrounds. She holds a Ph.D. in criminology and divides her time between writing; working as the marketing manager of the Vancouver Tool Corporation (vancouvertool.com), the business she started with her husband; and speaking on innovation and the home-improvement industry (jayneseagrave.com).
