Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Opinionated, indeed! But with so many breathtaking hikes in Washington State's North Cascades, it's a pleasure to find a guidebook that attempts to separate the magnificent from the merely splendid. With craggy, glacier-clad peaks, magnificent ancient forest, and towering volcanoes, this remote region offers outdoors enthusiasts a seemingly endless variety of hiking and backpacking options. Many hikers consider the North Cascades--also known as the American Alps--the jewels of North America's mountain ranges. Don't Waste Your Time in the North Cascades rates the best trails for experiencing such a diverse wilderness--and also mentions which trails to veer away from at all costs. Occasionally the book's tone can be grumbling, but the authors are trying to do hikers a service; when it comes to crowded trails and uninspired treks, a little grumbling is OK if it serves as ample warning.
