No. One advantage of a coastal hike is that it is almost impossible to get lost. You ll often be bushwhacking, but never lost. There is no definitive route on the Nootka, but a trail is blazed with brightly coloured surveyors tape (put in somewhat erratically by a school group in 2001) & by older markers nailed on to trees.
