This review is from: Point Reyes - Secret Places and Magic Moments (Tetra) (Paperback)

Pt Reyes rangers told us that this book makes things seem too easy. We were happy to agree as we had just been rescued by helicopter at 11:30 pm from a small rocky cove, trapped by the incoming tide. The hike had been planned for months, tide tables checked, double checked, and confirmed with the park service that day. We just didn't go fast enough. (Rangers say lots of folks sprain ankles on that particular hike.)

If you decide to take any of these hikes (the one we took was beautiful) double check with the rangers when you get to the park (we didn't), make sure someone knows exactly where you're going (we're thankful we did), and make sure you're prepared for everything (we were, basically).

This book is fabulous. Don't expect a "walk in the park." This is a serious wilderness guide that includes beautiful trail and off-trail hikes. Arnot tells us much more than just trail markers - he speaks from the heart about the natural scenes that we pass. A must buy if you are exploring this little known gem of California.

This book is the real deal. Not for the faint at heart. Contains phenomenal information about the most beautiful beaches and waterfalls on the wildest coastline in California. If you are coming to Pt Reyes, you must have this book.
