 Seventy-Five Year-Round Hikes in Northern California by Marc J. Soares - Offers ideal off-season hiking choices for those looking to escape crowded trails
- Northern California is a year-round destination for visitors from all over the country
- Easy access to all hikes from I-5, Highways 1 and 101
From Humboldt and Del Norte counties in the far north to trail systems of the Bay Area in the south, from the Coast Range to the east side of the Cascade Range, Northern California offers unbelievable hiking opportunities, especially when summer days and summer crowds are long gone. The hikes featured in this new guide are at their peak in fall, winter, and spring. Areas that are brown and dry in the summer will show off smooth green hills, oak woodlands, low-elevation peaks dusted with light snow, dramatic views, raging rivers, and waterfalls when hiked in the off-season. All the hikes are easily accessible and are of a length that accommodates the shorter daylight hours of winter. Other useful features are: - Classic hikes featuring waterfalls at their peak and wildflowers in their prime in the off-season
- Handy trail index indicating best season to go on each trail, plus ideal hikes for bird watching
- Complete trailhead directions, nearest campground information, and a detailed map for each hike
- What to expect season by season on each trail
