Awesome book that gives very helpful tips about different locations in Oregon to backpack.
It was my first backpacking book purchased, and since then I haven't found better.
He gives very personal accounts of each trail. He also rates each trail on a scale of 10 based on its difficulty, scenery, etc.
A must have for any outdoor-loving Oregonian.
