There is a short review athttp://www.broken-fish.net/2008/raves/04/17/albertas-trout-highway/

It is a pretty good book. The area covered would make a very nice road trip.


I'll second the book suggestion. I've sampled a few of the waters
in there on my Canadian trips, and once I retire I hope to devote a
few years to covering that whole area. Gorgeous country and beautiful
wild fish.

Another suggestion for that area: Jim McLennan's _Trout Streams of
Alberta_. He's very knowledgeable about the area, and I really like
his writing style.
