Summary: A must for exploring the 'Dacks
Comment: This comprehensive book is a must for anyone exploring the High Peaks region of the Adirondacks. I use it as my bible to plan every trip I take to the area. The topo map alone is almost worth the price (although it can be purchased separately).
The editor, Tony Goodwin, is born into a family of hikers, and is very involved with the DEC and ADK mountain club. He's a valuable source of information not only on the trail conditions, but on the future plans! I had a privilege of working on a trail construction project to build a new route that he spearheaded.
There are only two things I would like to see in future editions:
1) A more thorough listing of the locations of designated campsites (aside from those surrounding lean-tos)
2) Time/ distance/ elevation estimates for the unmarked/unmaintained trails of the 46 High Peaks.
For the unmaintained trails, Barbara McMartin's Discover the Adirondack High Peaks is more thorough.
