Great Backpacking Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Wildflowers of Yosemite (Paperback)
For the last decade or more, I have lugged one or two flower books along on backpacking trips in the Sierras, slowly learning to identify the gorgeous and the not-so-gorgeous plants that live in the Mountains of Light. I have come to appreciate several qualities in a field guide: clear photographs that capture the essential character of the plant; brief and clear descriptions that give not only common names and clues for identification but also information on the plant's preferred location and season and an interesting fact or two; clear organization to help me locate flowers that are old friends as well as new ones; and, most important, light in weight! This book scores high on all criteria. It's only rival so far is WILDFLOWERS 3: THE SIERRA NEVADA by Elizabeth Horn.
