Summary: Highpoint Adventures Hits the High Points!
Comment: I found this book to be even better than the first one - which I thought was also terrific! The authors - Charlie and Diane Winger - know their stuff. This is not based on book research as much as it's based on first-hand knowledge of the subject. From cover to cover it is jam-packed with all sorts of information that is helpful to everyone, from the novice to the expert. This is a must book for anyone who is planning on a site-seeing trip or a trek up the side of a mountain. I find it useful just to enhance my knowledge of my country. After reading it, I ordered a second copy to give as gift. That individual gave outstanding praise to the authors as well. 5 stars is not enough for this book - I give them a perfect 10!

Summary: A different way to see the USA
Comment: What a fun concept! Travel around the country to the highest places rather than the best-known places. This book has good information about hiking, plus interesting tidbits about things to do near the high points of each state. The authors obviously enjoy travel, and give really clear descriptions of how to get places. Plus, I was able to "climb vicariously" by reading about their adventures on difficult mountains that I would never try to climb myself.

Summary: tidbits of info, tons of directions!
Comment: I liked the little tidbits of information that come with each chapter. The approach directions are right on, as far as I've experienced, and the hiking directions are good too. I enjoyed the personal anecdotes. That is what this hobby seems to be all about, the experience of getting to the top of each state, not just the hike itself.
