Gregory KNOWS Colorado and shares with readers!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Colorado Scenic Guide: Norther Region (Paperback)
Gregory knows Colorado and has written the best travel companion for Northern Colorado. Like Scenic Colorado - Southern Region, this volume is tighly constructed to offer the traveler the best, in-depth information for enjoying the region.
Included are very detailed directions to breathtaking sights that most would miss without Gregory's assistance. Also included are very accurate suggestion on how long you'll want to plan to visit a site, best times of day to take photos at the site and many other helpful tips.
Knowing Colorado as he does, Gregory shares both his knowledge, and passion, for the region with his readers in a well prepared text that allows the traveler to discover and enjoy the state in a way usually reserved for the natives.
4.0 out of 5 stars
