.Adventuring in the California Desert by: Lynne Foster October 28, 1997 Don't buy this if you just want a hiking/camping guide. Here's why: * The author himself mentions that 50% of the book isn't really related to hiking ("adventuring" as in the book's title) * The hikes are not described well. There are no total trail distances given. * There are no maps of trails/trailheads/wilderness areas, and that's what REALLY bugs me. There are virtually no maps in this book. The maps that are there are VERY pitiful. Without maps, this book is virtually useless to me. I would recommend that you look around at other books available if you're after a good hiking guide. Since the average rating is currently at 4.5 I'm gonna give this a 1 to try to add some balance to things... >>See More Reviews & Details on Adventuring in the California Desert |
