Book Reviews of Guide to the Colorado Mountains

Book Review: An encyclopaedic guide to Colorado's mountains
Summary: 4 Stars

Unlike most mountain guidebooks which provide detailed information about a limited number of peaks, this guidebook provides basic, minimal information for getting to nearly every imaginable mountain destination in the state. It is a unique, encyclopaedic reference work, which will help you to discover Colorado's lesser-travelled mountains, while also providing information about the most popular destinations.

Summary of Guide to the Colorado Mountains

For nearly 50 years and for generations of outdoor enthusiasts, the authoritative source on Colorado's mountains has been Guide to the Colorado Mountains. Now this new edition compiles updated route descriptions for more than 1,500 hiking and climbing destinations-peaks, passes, lakes, and trails-from the expert trip leaders of the Colorado Mountain Club. All the ranges are covered, with trails and peaks grouped by access and with new maps, photos, and a detailed index. A checklist ranks the peaks in order, and special sections cover climbing history, geology, backcountry use, recommended equipment, and much more.
