Up the Lake,Coastal British Columbia Stories,written and published by Wayne J. Lutz, is a book of true stories about real people and places. In it, Lutz shares his experiences living in a float cabin on Powell Lake, and exploring the area around the coastal community of Powell River, B.C. Written from the perspective of a city-dweller who is adjusting to the isolation away from the city, Lutz describes the joys and challenges he encounters while boating, hiking, biking, ATVing and surviving the rugged B.C. coast. Detailed illustrations and maps accompany these unique stories of Lutz’s explorations. Captivating tales of the locals that Lutz meets during his adventures make Up the Lakeengaging reading.

“When we pull out onto the flatter portion of the trail, John pulls up behind me, and I twist to talk to him. I thank him for the most memorable experience of my life,” writes Lutz. —Up the Lake, Coastal British Columbia Stories
