Summary: Bad directions to many of the hiking trails
Review: A great guide to hikes of all varieties in the SF Bay Area. Describes the locale, distance, difficulty, and basic map of all the hikes. Found lots of new & interesting places to go hiking in the area that I'd never seen or heard of before. There are also color photos of some of the areas in which to hike.

There's also a similar book from Foghorn Outdoors which I've seen, both are excellent companions to exploring the many great trails in the Bay Area.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Bad directions to many of the hiking trails
Review: I have chosen over a dozen hikes from this book so far, and I have to say the driving directions are not very good. 3 of the trails I could not even find- after driving for over 1 1/2 hours, I gave up and just went to stinson beach with the dog (waiting patiently in the back seat). I have lived in the Bay Area for 15 years, and like to think I know the area pretty well- but this book made it difficult!

The trails I did find were great.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Disappointed
Review: This book covered many areas, however, didn't go into enough depth. I would have liked more trail detail, wildflower, wildlife information.
