4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent resource, March 31, 1999

This review is from: Longstreet Highroad Guide to the Vermont Mountains (Longstreet Highlands Innactive Series) (Paperback)

"Longstreet Highroad Guide to the Vermont Mountains" is an excellent resource for both Vermont mountain enthusiasts and Vermont residents who want to learn more about their beautiful state.

Nancy Bazilchuk and Rick Strimbeck provide more than 50 helpful and original maps, as well as detailed trail descriptions and extensive info on the natural history, geology, flora, and fauna of hundreds of gorgeous mountain sites.

The authors point out a multitude of terrific features, ranging from the Stowe Recreation Path (for cyclists, runners, walkers, and cross-country skiers) that has "glorious views of Mount Mansfield" to Breadloaf Wilderness--in Central Vermont--where "roads are nearly invisible, and the pale green pastels of pastureland melt into the rich emeralds of hilltop forests."

Dates, fees, facilities, and closest towns are a few of the many other items listed in this marvelous guide.

This is simply the best Vermont guidebook for the hiker, outdoorsperson, and vacationer. It is organized by small geographical sections of the state and it covers each section thoroughly, providing clear driving directions to each site. It is well organized and carefully researched. I found it very helpful and so much easier than dealing with maps.
