Best Cross Country Sk Book for Lassen Volcanic National Park, February 17, 2001
This review is from: Ski Tours in Lassen Volcanic National Park (Paperback)
There's something about seeing hot springs and mud pots in winter that I really enjoy--lots of steam and snow!
This book has 44 tours in Lassen Volcanic National Park in Northern California. This area is beautiful but less-visited than the Sierra. Each tour is rated with difficulty, length, elevation, navigation, time, and season. All tours have B&W copies USGS topos (1 inch per mile scale) with the trail outlined. Each tour has a description of what you see, where to start, and leads you through the tour. The book also has a list of local lodging and official information sources. Lots of interesting and entertaining ski pictures are sprinkled in the book. The only thing I think is missing would be an index, but that wouldn't stop me from buying the book.
Also recommended: Ski Tours in the Sierra Nevada, 50 Classic Backcountry Ski and Snowboard Summits in California, Ski Tours in Southern California
