Foghorn Outdoors: California Hiking: The Complete Guide to More Than 1,000 of the Best Hikes
Devoted campers, hikers, boaters, anglers, bikers, and golfers agree: Foghorn Outdoors guidebooks are essential for anyone who wants to spend less time planning and more time enjoying the outdoors. Each book is an excursion guide packed with the latest information on a variety of adventures near and far. Written by outdoors experts Tom Stienstra and Ann Marie Brown, Foghorn Outdoors: California Hiking is the complete hiker's resource, with detailed descriptions of more than 1,000 hikes of varying lengths, difficulty, and terrain. From short morning hikes along the coast to multiday backpacking trips in the Sierra Nevada, this guide has all the information you need for an enjoyable hiking experience. This sixth edition includes a new organizational structure that is divided into regions which will also be the destination chapters of the books. New keynotes will provide a short introduction to each region describing the features of the area with particular attention to what hiking is like in the area. New maps will be very detailed and easy to navigate and each region will have a complete map set with every hike listed on it. New hiking tips, which have not been part of this book before, include advice on gear, safety, low-impact hiking, climate, seasons, and more.There are few corners of California in which Tom Stienstra has not set Vibram-soled foot at one time or another.
In this information-packed guidebook, the longtime San Francisco Chronicle outdoors columnist catalogues the best (and the rest) of the Golden State's trails, combining his encyclopedic knowledge with that of another accomplished trekker, Ann Marie Brown. The two cover more than a thousand hikes that range from short jaunts to multiday expeditions, rating each walk for length and difficulty and providing notes on water sources, points of interest, permits, contacts, and other useful data. At the most demanding end of the scale, for example, is a 14-mile scramble up Mount Shasta, for which they recommend that you carry an ice ax and crampons; on the moderate side is the 10.6-mile ramble through Pine Valley, in the coastal mountains above Big Sur, with "an up-and-down course that soon becomes more down than up"; and on the easy end is a 1.2-mile round-trip amble along the Desert View Nature Trail near the summit of Southern California's Laguna Mountain. In every instance, Stienstra and Brown tell what you can expect to see and where you're likely to encounter trouble in the form of storms, predatory mammals, or crowds.
Thoroughly updated, this is by far the best single source of information on planning a hiking trip in California. --Gregory McNamee
