Excellent Book

One of the nicest things about this book is it includes a small map of the Portland Area with all of the locations marked. Many books do not include this simple feature which makes it very nice to find walks near you or in a particular area. All of the directions for getting everywhere are very clear. Each walk includes a small map, distance, time required, best time to go, highlights, terrain, and commentary. It is also really good about stating whether or not a hike is good for wheelchairs and strollers.
