This book wasn't overwhelmingly good. On a number of reviews, the author mentioned she only hiked the trail one time. Sometimes this was winter, sometimes spring or summer. Obviously, a hike changes drastically depending on the time of year it is undertaken. Also, we wasted a good hour trying to find a trail she had reviewed that simply didn't exist. Her directions weren't always good (e.g., turn onto this street and then continue five miles past the valley--when the valley may be 10 miles down the road itself). If there are other books of hikes in the Denver/Boulder area, I would recommend getting them over this book.

I bought this book when I moved to Denver, and it took me to a lot of places that I never would have found on my own. I found some amazing hiking trails. It was very easy to pick and choose based on what you were looking for. When I first moved there, I found many hiking trails on the shorter or easier side that were all an easy driving distance. After a few months, I moved on up to trails a little more challenging and enjoyed those even more. These were all trails which if I had not had this book, I would not have been able to find. After a few more months I was doing the longer and more intense trails; trails that had a lot of elevation gain and rugged terrain. This book was perfect for preparing me what I was getting myself into, and explaining exactly how to get there and what to expect. The only problem was, that after living in Denver for long enough, I realized many of the best trails were even further than 60 miles! This book is the perfect gateway book to get you into harder stuff. Pick up this book, test the waters, and before you know it you'll be a full time trail junkie fiending for the weekend when you can get away and really get after it. Enjoy!

We aren't huge hikers in my family, but we live in Boulder County, Colorado and purchased this book for our stash of CO info for all the folks who come to visit us through the year. I've used it a couple times and it was great, but visitors reported back that it was really useful.
Great, concise information, presented clearly and accurately. I recommend it if you're visiting our state or live here and want to provide your visitors with options for how to get out and experience our gorgeous environment.

Found it to be a great jumping off point for someone new to the area. It also has lots of facts (distance, maps, difficulty) for quick reference.

This book has it all - from moderate to aggressive hikes, hikes for kids, dogs, horses, whatever your pleasure. The author does a great job with the details, and the maps are very accurate.

Have already used this for several hikes around town. Great descriptions and really helps. Minor note, some of the directions to location or on trail are not accurate. Have found more than a few times when the guide says turn left, it was actually right.
