Customer Reviews

Great book in a great series

In the age of instant maps via the internet, I will put aside the complaint about any poor directions. Overall, I have enjoyed the hikes in the book. We have hikes with very young children and with teens. Each hike is outlined well, with idea for keeping the young folks interested (though I find that my kids are very good at keeping themselves interested along a trail). I am thankful for the season guide, the altitude guide, and other details that are significant when hiking with children. I only wish there were guides for more regions, especially in the southern states.
