When the trip is over this book will end up on your coffee table where its beautiful photos will evoke renewed memories of your excursion.”

Book News, Inc., November 2005 (circ. unavailable) With period and contemporary photos and maps, this well-hiked couple, who have authored many outdoor guidebooks, share 30 of the Beaver State’s less-traveled byways.”

The Oregonian, July 3, 2005 (circ.: 335,980) The pictures are spectacular and whet the appetite for a few of the real thing. The descriptions of the selected routes and the attractions they lead to are entertaining and informative.”
