5.0 out of 5 stars
Super guide book for the New England AT,
By Rich D. "Rich D" (Wethersfield, CT) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Exploring the Appalachian Trail: Hikes in South New England (Paperback)
This book is awesome for guiding your adventures on the lower New England AT. The book has all the info you need on trails, shelters, water sources, and parking. There are also elevation maps and recommended routes to take. The only feature that I thought was not super were the small topo/contour maps. Streams were not easy to see on the maps and the fidelity of the maps could have been a bit better. I purchased the ATC Connecticut/Mass. maps which are awesome. This is the book I will go to every time I want to take a trip on the AT in this lower New England area.

Nice guide to plan your hikes,

This review is from: Exploring the Appalachian Trail: Hikes in South New England (Paperback)
This is a gem of a book. Has good descriptions of hikes on segments of the AT. You can go as far as you can walk or take a few hours to hike. Good maps and assessments of terrain.Lets you match the hike with your abilities. Interesting social and historic notes, it makes you think about how the wilderness has evolved to once again take back what were cleared and settled areas, traces of which remain. Clear directions. Fits nicely in backpack.
