Customer Reviews

Great book to discover those hidden spots in Eastern Idaho!

Margaret Fuller is an exceptional writer that combines how to get to some of the best locations in Idaho with a little history of the areas you might explore. I own all of her guidebooks and would recommend them to anyone. One of my favorite pieces of information that she includes is how long a hike will take which makes it nice since I can plan better. This book surprised me with some of the hikes found within. I grew up in Salmon and spent my summers hiking the mountains nearby yet Margaret had some hikes into areas I hadn't explored before which comes to show you that it takes a lifetime or more to discover all of Idaho's secrets. Pick up the book and find some great places that not many know about. I would recommend some hikes into the Lemhi Range for starters.

Good reference, but lacks editorial comment

I find this book very helpful in locating trails. It has good descriptions of how to locate trailheads, including milage and Forest Service road numbers, but it lacks important comment about scenery and how one area compares to another. Also I would like to know the condition of the trails. Are they used by those repulsive four wheelers? Is this area a non-motorized use area or not? But other than that the descriptions of trails if very informative.
