5.0 out of 5 stars Paddle Routes Of The Inland Northwest
This is a very good book to have on hand when planning a kayak or canoe trip. It has all the pertinent information on put in and take out locations, water class ect. The maps are a added plus.

3.0 out of 5 stars Paddling Washington Rivers
Having done two of the routes described in this book (Ross Lake and the Yakima River Canyon), I have mixed feelings:

On one hand, there is a lot of useful information in this book (e.g. which sections of which rivers are most suitable for paddling, and at what water levels).

On the other hand, the description for Ross Lake wasn't very detailed...

This review is from: Paddling Washington: 100 Flatwater and Whitewater Routes in Washington State and the Inland Northwest (Paperback)
Having done two of the routes described in this book (Ross Lake and the Yakima River Canyon), I have mixed feelings:

On one hand, there is a lot of useful information in this book (e.g. which sections of which rivers are most suitable for paddling, and at what water levels).

On the other hand, the description for Ross Lake wasn't very detailed (e.g. no mention of the one-mile lake access trail), and the map for the Yakima River Canyon route had the take-out site a mile downstream of the actual location.

There does not appear to be a website for submitting and viewing errata for this book.

Also, given that most of the routes in this book are on rivers and require a shuttle, a list of reliable shuttle companies would have been a plus.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must if you plan to paddle in the Inland Northwest area., October 14, 2008
This review is from: Paddling Washington: 100 Flatwater and Whitewater Routes in Washington State and the Inland Northwest (Paperback)
Similar to his previous book, but more inclusive. Only wish he would also rate these for the suitability of camping.
