Book
Trade Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Lilienthal, Betty - Photographs (illustrator). Second Edition. 123 Pages Indexed. The small town of Los Alamos, New Mexico, thirty-five miles north of Santa Fe, is known as the birthplace of the atomic age. It is set in some of the Southwest's most magnificent country. Dorothy Hoard, a resident since 1963, has hiked Los Alamos County with a naturalist's awareness and distills her experiences into a small treasure of a book that is much more than a hiking guide. In addition to practical descriptions of twenty-four hikes throughout the county, the author provides a rich background of human history interwoven with the natural history of plants and rocks, birds and animals. Invaluable for hiker and armchair explorer alike, Los Alamos Outdoors leads the reader through canyons and over mountains across a landscape of striking beauty. The author's delight in her surroundings illuminates every page. Illustrated with topographical maps of each hike and with the author's own drawings and photographs by Betty Lilienthal.
