This review is from: Hiking Montana, 3rd: 25th Anniversary Edition (State Hiking Guides Series) (Paperback)
The book is well written and is organized in a way that allows you to find a hike based on the area you are looking at. Descriptions and directions seem to be accurate.

Decent, but incomplete,
By
This review is from: Hiking Montana, 3rd: 25th Anniversary Edition (State Hiking Guides Series) (Paperback)
The book's information and descriptions for the trails it has are decent, but it's missing quite a few of them I personally know in the Missoula area. Some of the lesser known trails' omission is forgivable, but not listing Blue Mountain? I mean, come on. That would be like listing attractions in San Diego, and not mentioning the zoo.
If you're hoping for an end-all reference encylopedia of Montana trails like I was, this ain't it. But, if you're happy with a rather spotty listing of trails mostly focused around waterways, this is your book.
