Download or read book Stoked On Waterfalls written by Jason Walchuck and published by . This book was released on 2019-12-31 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first volume in the Stoked on Waterfalls book series about waterfalls in Alberta. Volume 1 aims to cover every waterfall in Alberta located within 500 meters (with a few longer exceptions) of any public road. There are 208 waterfalls described in this book that meet the criteria. This book is to be used as a guide to help you reach every waterfall as quickly and as safely as possible. Each waterfall has a driving description, hiking description, level of difficulty, GPS coordinates, colour photo, and detailed map showing how to reach the waterfall. My hope is that this book will inspire more people to get outside and enjoy the natural beauty the province of Alberta has to offer. Alberta has over 800 waterfalls I currently know about, and I look forward to documenting every waterfall and sharing this information with likeminded people who love getting outside and exploring in Alberta's amazing wilderness. Please look for the next volumes in my series as I continue to explore and chase waterfalls in Alberta! Please check out my website at stokedonwaterfalls.com for more information.
Download or read book American Waterfalls written by Thomas Berger and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has at least one passion. One of my passions is waterfalls, and I have written and composed this book that reviews my personal journeys to 100 waterfalls in 26 states. The waterfalls are grouped by type of waterfall and separated into eight chapters. Thunderous waters, bridal veil falls and mossy greens are a few examples of how waterfalls in different regions of the United States can have similar qualities. Rather than being a regional guidebook explaining how to get to a waterfall, this book is national in scope and describes the experience of visiting each waterfall, from the parking lot to the point around the bend where one first hears rushing water. The United States of America is a large country, and it is difficult to view in its entirety without either significant time for a road trip or access to flight. However, over time, individuals and families will have opportunities to visit different parts of the USA, often seeing our wonderful National and State Parks on a vacation or on a business trip. During those times there will be opportunities to view some of America's great waterfalls. The development of the book has been an organic process over a 15 year time span through my visitation and enjoyment of numerous parks.

Big-wave surfer Chris Bertish was the first South African to brave the monster waves of Mavericks, winning the Mavericks Big Wave Invitational surfing event in the biggest and heaviest waves ever recorded in the history of the sport.
