Rv Adventures in the Pacific Northwest: A Camping Guide to Washington, Oregon, & British Columbia

The book is called “A Camping Guide”, so I was expecting a guide to camping, campgrounds, etc. Well, it’s more like a suggested trip guide with very little (5 lines) information per campground. Also, they list only very few, only those which are on their suggested trips. Even though not a complete loss (the trips are kind of nice), I think the title is completely misleading. Also there are 5 trips for WA, 2 for Oregon, and 1 for BC… very Washington centric. I also don’t quite understand why a camp guide needs information about downtown Seattle…. not many people camping there last time I checked. If I want a tourist guide for Seattle, I buy one and there are many better ones.

I bought this book thinking I would find where to stay and visit on some great tours through Washington. I live here and all of their tours are already well known – I hoped for something different. They talk about spending several days touring Seattle! This is not an adventure for somebody in an RV to make – traffic is terrible. Not at all what I thought or it sounded from editorial reviews.
