Day Trips with a Splash: Northeastern Swimming Holes

by Pancho Doll

Secluded waterfalls, remote two-person tubs and hidden pools from the Shenandoah Mountains to Baxter Park in Maine. Clothing optional spots are noted, icons tell dog owners if four-legged hikers are appropriate and families with small children can tell at a glance if the journey is a good one for the little dippers. There are hundreds of potential destinations, but the weekend has only 52 hours until Monday. An effective guide, in addition to telling you where to go, should tell you where not to go. Splash reviews the best ones, while listing lesser spots in the back of each chapter. GPS users appreciate latitude and longitude notes, but even if you don't use satellite navigation, you can get maps from the web site.

Tuck it in your pocket on the way out the door, so instead of carrying the whole book, you take only the page you need.
