Black Hills and Badlands

Just returned from a week of hiking and bushwhacking in the Badlands and Black Hills (away from the tourist stuff)and found the book completely accurate and pitch perfect in its descriptions. We used the book in our planning and also during the trip; it was pretty dog-eared by the time we finished the week because everyone picked through it for trail ideas and other bits of info. Mr. Rogers became our 'consultant' and helped us put together a trip that was one for the books. If you want to see the 'real' Badlands and Black Hills, as well as take time for more well-beaten, but worthwhile trails, then I highly suggest this book. Thanks, Mr. Rogers, for an outstanding week.

Best Guide Ever

This is an awesome book that is well written and an excellent guidebook for the outdoorsman. The photographs are outstanding. The trail maps are very helpful.

one of the best books.

This book is one of the best books ever written. It is very easy to read and there are many illustrations to help understand. I really enjoyed this book then I'm planning to give a present to my nephew. If you think you are a biker, Hiram's book is a must. Thanks.

Handy Reference

Great reference for someone new to BH. Includes topo maps and clear directions on how to get to the trails. Also has good writeups on each area, with details on the specific trail to follow. When checking ratings, keep in mind these are experienced hikers... you may have a hard time if you're new or out of shape. I take it with me every time I head out.
