Customer Reviews

Perfect.

First off I'm an avid hiker...Ive completed both the Appalachian and Pacific Crest trails. This book and its partner editions for other regions like the Northern Cascades and more are awesome! Love the local input, the maps, and how they give you the info you need and not a bunch of fluff n stuff.

A nice looking Mt. Rainier Trail Guide

This book is great for light weight planning. it has nice photos, and a good selection of hikes. For a person who wants some guidance on where to go hiking, this is a great place to start. It's a beautiful book. We put this book in all three of our Mt. Rainier cabins at Three Bears Lodge. The guests do love to review them when they're planning their next day's assault.

A Great Hiking Guide, To "The Mountain"

This book is great. It gives detailed descriptions of the trail, detailed maps and great photos. Many hikes can be done in less than 6 hours. This guide has helped me decide on what trails to see on my trip to Seattle-Washington-Mount Rainier in Aug. of 2005. The authors of this book, Ira Spring and Harvey Manning, really show their respect for Mount Rainier, by calling it "The Mountain" and it always being capitalized.

Very helpful

This book is a great resource to help you plan your hikes in Mount Rainier National Park. The trail descriptions are good and show trail lengths and level of difficulty. My only complaint about the book is that the individual trail maps throughout the book don't maintain a consistent North/South orientation and can be confusing to follow from one to the next.

A fine book on a fine National Park

Some of my favorite trails in WA--glaciers, high ridges, waterfalls, flowers--a must for exploring the park.
