Find spectacular alpine lakes and waterfalls, wildlife retreats, and
flower havens with The Vail Hiker. Popular Colorado hiker-historian
Mary Ellen Gilliland introduces outdoor enthusiasts to fifty scenic
trails leading to 1880s ghost towns, gold mines, historic high passes.
Berry pickers’ hikes, Mount of the Holy Cross overlooks and peaks selected for stunning views invite hikers of every ability, from families with young children to aggressive hikers and mountaineers. In winter, cross-country skiers will find an avenue to a white world of alpine tranquility. The Vail Hiker and Ski Touring Guide offers accurate, easy to follow trail guides and ski touring routes with carefully compiled driving directions. Gilliland, author of eight Colorado books and editor of seven more, provides a well-researched history of each hike’s locale. Working closely with the Holy Cross and Eagle Ranger District foresters, the author has produced a reliable handbook to serve as companion to her best-selling Summit County guide, The New Summit Hiker. |
