Day Hiking South Cascades: Mt. St. Helens/Mt. Adams/Columbia Gorge (Done in a Day) [Idioma Inglés] - Softcover

"The '100 Hikes' series had two missions: to educate people about the amazing places to hike in this state, and to build a community of people willing to speak up for and protect those places. After reading through some of the new 'Day Hiking' guide, it's clear that the mission continues."--Andrew Engelson "Washington Trails Association "

A prolific team, with series titles on Mount Rainier and Snoqualmie Pass, Nelson and Bauer have assumed the mantle of Washington guidebook authors extraordinaire. Washington is where the 100-hikes genre began, so it's a weighty crown to wear. They wear it well, though, including another favorite, "Best Desert Hikes: Washington."--Terry Richard "OregonLive.com "

"Hot new series."--The Daily News, Longview WA

"The Mountaineers Books new Day Hiking series of guide books is a worthy successor to the classic Washington hiking guides authored by the late Harvey Manning and Ira Spring... [The] Day Hiking series was designed and written with the needs of hikers in mind."--About.com

"Having seen at least a dozen hiking guidebooks for Southwest Washington, I can say that this one rates at or near the top. It packs a lot of information into a compact package... [Dan Nelson has] a lively writing style. He gets right to the point of each trail's attraction with-out spending a lot of time giving mile-by-mile descriptions."--Daily News (Longview WA)
