Ouray Hiking Guide

I needed hiking information for the San Juan mountains of Colorado and picked this book, partly because it was authored by a local. The first time I used it, I was about 4 miles into a particular hike and came across two people and a dog along the trail. It was the author, his wife and his dog, Angie. They were checking the trail for any necessary changes in the Guide. Have used the guide for many of his hikes and found it accurate on difficulty and points of interest and presented in a very readable style.
