I am also planning a kayaking trip to the Queen Charlottes. It will be for the month of August 2001. (I just requested the leave of absence) At this point it is looking like a solo trip.

There are many books on the QC's and B.C.Parks put out some good brochures. Weather conditions should be much the same as the West Coast of Vancouver Island. I have heard that there are some great surfing areas to play in or watch out for depending.

My only suggestion wouldbe to go in August or September as this is the time most likely to experience good conditions.

Have a great and safe time. Let me know how it goes.
