5.0 out of 5 stars
Best hiking book for my requirements!,
This review is from: Hiking the Oregon Coast: Day Hikes Along the Oregon Coast and Coastal Mountains (Paperback)
I looked at several OR coast hiking books from the library and found "Hiking The Oregon Coast" to be my favorite, thus the one I bought. This was because it was easy to figure out each hike, there were not too many hikes to choose from, the maps and descriptions were clear and easy to follow when I hiked.
