This review is from: New York Walk Book: A Companion to the New Jersey Walk Book (Paperback)
I do a lot of hiking and mainly kept to the Appalachian Trail. I've recently started venturing off onto other trails and found this book invaluable for planning when used in conjunction with full size topo maps. I think every trail (just about) in New York state is in here.

This review is from: New York Walk Book: A Companion to the New Jersey Walk Book (Paperback)
Given the title of the book, I was assuming that it would contain trail descriptions for all of New York State, but it only covers the metropolitan area of the state and it does NOT cover the Adirondacks as the other review claims (nor Finger Lakes or western New York etc.).
This is a list of places this book actually covers (from the back cover): New York city, Long Island, Westchester County, Fahnestock State Park, East Hudson Highlands, Dutchess county, the Southern Taconics, the Catskills, the Shawangunk Mountains, Schunemunk Mountain, Storm King and Black Rock Forest, Bear Mountain - Harriman State Parks, Rockland County, Sterling Forest. The trail descriptions seem very precise but there is no difficulty level/estimated time/altitude gradient, just the length is indicated. The illustrations are nice and there are some decent maps at the end. |
