This is the West Coast
Circle Driving Tour which includes California, Alaska, Yukon, British Columbia,
Oregon, Washington and Alberta. Separate inter-linking referral
networks will be established as our membership transcends these
geographical boundaries. Any InnKeeper wishing to be the
webmaster of another Circle Tour (i.e.. New England, Mid West,
Southern States, Atlantic Region, etc.) may apply in writing to:
webmaster@goldkeyinns.com
These areas would then also be linked to all the other areas as
well.
