Thoroughly revised edition of the well-known, detailed guide to four-season activities and destinations for nearly 200 state recreation areas in Washington, featuring a new 16-page color photo insert.
Surf-washed beaches, lush forests, sagebrush-dusted plains, sparkling
lakes and rivers--nature has packed Washington with the stuff of every
outdoor lover's dream.
Using their first-hand knowledge and thorough research to showcase almost
200 parks, Marge & Ted Mueller direct readers to the best camping, hiking,
swimming, fishing, skiing, and more. Each park description includes a map;
listings of park hours and months open; facilities; attractions;
regulations; and access, plus a detailed description of the park's
history, highlights, plants, and animals. The wide range of activities are
perfect for everyone from young families, to avid hikers and skiers, to
retired travelers exploring the state. Illustrated with black-and-white
photographs and a new color photo insert, the guide is organized into five
regions, and each park map incorporates easy-to-spot icons representing
available activities.
Avid explorers, Marge and Ted Mueller are the authors of The
Mountaineers' popular Afoot & Afloat series, A Guide to Washington's South
Cascades Volcanic Landscapes, and Exploring Washington's Wild Areas. They
live in Seattle, Washington.
