The book was helpful in helping us select hikes. Accuracy was a problem, on one hike the starting point was misstated by 5 mi. This coupled with virtually no trail markings in Colorado, made our hikes frustrating. The 'author' is a photographer who should have collaborated with someone for accuracy. Get better maps and descriptions of individual hikes before you set out.
 a beautiful book leading to beautiful hikes August 6, 2007

My son and I used this book to plan our first trip out west. The photos are beautiful, and the text is just great: accurate, well written, consistent, and contains just enough detail to make the book perfect for selecting the hike and locating the trailhead. It was a joy to read.
Just a couple of suggestions for the trail: plan for the fact that hiking times do not build in time for any long stops, and you may want to supplement the book with a topographic map for some of the longer and less-traveled trails.
an excellent start May 19, 2007
this book is a terrific tool to find hikes all over the state. i've hiked 20+ of the trails and have not been disappointed in the experiences. better maps (or topos) would be a welcome addition but the trails all seemed well defined and detailed maps are probably not needed for the majority of hikes. i would highly recommend this book to hikers of all abilities.

Anticipation to take these hikes. A little disappointed in the directions on how to get to the trails, but with a little research I have been able to locate them

This book does exactly what the other reviews say it does -- it gives overviews of some great Colorado hikes and good descriptions of the terrain. If you plan on hiking in Colorado often, this is an excellent place to start.
