I purchased this book and another on snow shoe trails in the Adirondacks - each offered a unique description and different trails. I'm glad I purchased both. I purchased this book for the snow shoe possiblities but it offeres equally great descriptions of ski possiblities also. I liked that the hikes were broken down by regions within the Adirondack mountains and also gave some great advise in how to prepare for winter snow shoe hiking in the Adirondack region. It also provided maps that offered a glimps that oriented the reader. Each entry gave distance, elevation change, degree of difficuly for both skiing and snow shoeing as well as a map (not real detailed) that was helpful. My only problem will be finding the time to experiance each and every adventure that was so wonderfully described!

If you are interested in adventures in the snow in the Adirondacks, this is an excellent guide. The authors offer a wide range of trails all over the Adirondacks that can be used by people of differing abilities.

The trails in this book offer an alternative to x-country trails that require a fee. I have been amazed at the beauty at some of the country we have seen on both snowshoes and skis. I highly recommend this book!
