The book you are now holding focuses on hiking routes found throughout the North Cascades and the San Juan Islands—basically, all the good day hikes from the Canadian border south to the Mountain Loop Highway and east from the San Juans to the Okanogan River. You’ll find short walks close to population centers and all-day treks deep into wilderness areas. Beaches, islands, riversides, lakefronts, old growth forests, alpine meadows, mountaintops, and fire lookouts—they’re all in here. Hikes in national parks, national forests, wilderness areas, state and county parks. Hikes perfect for children, friendly to dogs, accessible year-round, popular and remote. New trails, historical trails, and revitalized trails. Where to find wildlife, where to escape crowds, and where to get the best bang for your boot. It’s all included in this packed with adventure volume.
