Go to Vermont
 From the Fifty Hikes series. Walks, Hikes, and Overnights in the Green Mountain StateFrom gentle nature trails to rugged peak climbs, from remote fishing holes to historic ghost towns, from rushing waterfalls to rare peregrine falcon habitat, the Green Mountain State has much to offer hikers. This completely revised and updated 6th edition leads hikers up classic peaks like Camels Hump, Mount Mansfield, and Mount Ascutney, as well as revealing many more lesser-known gems. The hikes range in length from a half-mile stroll to a 22-mile backpacking trip. Each hike description includes a topographic map, mile-by-mile directions, and information on distance, difficulty, terrain, and hiking time. An overview chart makes it easy to pick a hike for every ability. And each hike description is enlivened by knowledgeable commentary on the area's geology, history, flora, and wildlife. A portion of the proceeds from 50 Hikes in Vermont will go toward the work of the Green Mountain Club. This book is the culmination of years of work by the volunteers of the GMC, Vermont's statewide hiking organization and the custodian of the Long Trail, as well as Vermont's section of the Appalachian Trail. More than 20 volunteers cooperated in researching and updating this sixth edition. Paperback 208 pages - 6" x 9" - 6th edition (4/03)
