3.0 out of 5 stars
Few and Far Between,
By Jason M. (Fort Collins, CO) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hiking Colorado's Front Range: Fort Collins to Colorado Springs (Paperback)
This book is well-written and provides some helpful information, but it seems that the hikes are all relatively minor dayhikes, with only 3 or 4 highlighted near each major population center along the Front Range. I was hoping for a more thorough and complete list of hikes in my area, as well as the same for my neighboring towns.
