This, along with Analise Elliot's "Hiking & Backpacking Big Sur," are all you'll ever need to enjoy the trails in and around "the big south." We mark them off in our copy as we hike em and jot down our impressions, which has been fun for keeping track of our awesomeness. Zac has even invented a system of rating a hike's difficulty. The unit of measurement is "breeze burgers," those cloud formations of hamburgers he sees in the skies after expending a certain quantity of energy. Recommended, but not a 5 because, I don't know, a 5 would have cooler pictures and folklore.

Great book for finding some amazing hikes in Big Sur. I only wish I had more time to explore the area! Sadly, I think my copy jumped out of the car near Bixby or Rocky Creek Bridge. Hopefully someone else picked it up and found some use for it!
