He has written, edited and contributed to several outdoor guides, including Dick Culbert’s classic A Climber’s Guide to the Coastal Ranges of British Columbia (Alpine Club of Canada, 1965) and Bruce Fairley’s Climbing and Hiking in Southwestern British Columbia (Gordon Soules Book Publishers, 1986).

David Woodsworth's interest in the outdoors came from his father, whose job as a geologist took him all over the Coast Mountains for three or four months each summer. From as young as seven, David accompanied him on helicopter trips. David has more than fifty years of experience exploring all corners of British Columbia, including several summers exploring the coast by small boat. He also has extensive hiking, backpacking and mountaineering experience, and has trained as a private and commercial pilot. He lives in Delta, BC.
