These trails take the seasoned hiker off the beaten path and offer an unsurpassed wilderness experience. The criteria used to select the hikes for this book reflect the individual hiker's particular biases toward what makes a great hike-spectacular views, alpine meadows, verdant forests, mountain lakes and streams, wildlife, and solitude. There's something for everyone in this book.
