Day Hiking: Snoqualmie Region (Done in a Day) | |
| • Alan L Bauer → Mountaineers Books 2007 | ||
Introducing next-generation trail guides for the Northwest We asked hikers what they want in a trail guide today and this is what they said: more day hikes, with options for extending the trip; hike selection conveniently arranged by highway and travel corridors; more hikes close to urban centers; more year-round hikes at low elevation; clear driving directions; a portable size; and more use of color. To meet the needs of the modern hiker, The Mountaineers Books introduces its new Day Hiking guidebook series, written by Northwest residents with impressive hiking resumes. These guides provide accurate information in attractive, high-quality packaging and are infused with the environmental ethic that distinguishes The Mountaineers Books from other outdoor publishers. |

Day Trips with a Splash: Swimming Holes of the Southwest | |
| • Pancho Doll → Running Water Publications 2000 | ||
A hiker's guide to swimming holes in Arizona and southern Utah. Secluded waterfalls, remote two-person tubs, hidden pools. It's a backcountry tip sheet for where to jump in when the surrounding rocks are sizzling and by definition the summer's coolest guide. Clothing optional spots are indicated. Similarly, icons tell dog owners if four-legged hikers are appropriate and families with small children can tell at a glance if the journey is a good one for the little dippers. Privacy is listed for each entry along with other icons indicating the best season to visit, the difficulty of approach, and the overall rating, whether fair, good, excellent or classic. Each review is accompanied by a photo and topographic map. If you buy the book you can register to download individual maps for print out at home. That way, you can fold up the map and tuck it in your shirt pocket instead of carrying a 216-page book when you're only using two pages of it. Much more elegant. In addition to telling hikers the best places to go, Day Trips with a Splash also lists places not worth visiting. After all, there are only 55 hours until Monday. Might as well make the weekend count. |

Day and Overnight Hikes in West Virginia's Monongahela National Forest | |
| • → Menasha Ridge Press 2000 | ||
The heart and soul of wild, wonderful West Virginia, the 900,000-acre Monogahela National Forest is a natural getaway for outdoor enthusiasts of every kind. But the best way to see all "the Mon" has to offer remains by foot. You'll agree with every footfall under the forest's stately cherry trees, passing through valleys of rhododendron where waterfalls roar among misted woodlands. Each trail description offers commentary on what to expect along the way and rates each hike for scenery, trail condition, difficulty, accessibility for children and solitude. Easily carried in your pocket, this book provides directions to more than 30 day hikes and 10 overnight hikes in the Monongahela National Forest. Some classic hikes are included, like High Falls and Seneca Rocks, but most will steer you off the beaten path - where you'll find more solitude and infrequently visited sights. The exceptional beauty and peace of mind found on these hikes just can't be experienced from a climate-controlled automobile. |
