Book Description
An exciting new edition for our popular Southwest Colorado High Country Day Hikes. This new edition has the same trails from Ouray and Silverton as our 1st Edition, but we have taken out the 12 Crested Butte trails and replaced them with 17 new hikes from Lake City. Crested Butte Colorado 65 Scenic Day Hikes continues to be a popular seller so the 12 hikes we have taken out of this edition are still covered in the Crested Butte book. Nicknamed, "A Peak Experience", Lake City is the staging ground for five Colorado 14,000 foot peaks: Handies, Uncompahgre, Wetterhorn, Red Cloud and Sunshine. For peak baggers, this is the place to go; for hikers who don't want to hike to 14,000 feet, you can still hike these trails to lower return points and still experience this grand scenery. We have detailed shorter, easier sections for all abilities. There is much more to the Lake City hikes than 14,000 peaks. The famous Colorado and Continental Divide Trails pass right around Lake City. We have detailed five different sections of these trails so day hikers can enjoy these amazing backpacker routes. So, put your boots on and go Take A Hike! This is Colorado High Country that dreams are made of.

Best Summit Hikes in Colorado
Author: James Dziezynski
Publisher: Wilderness Press
ISBN: 0899977138
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
Colorado has 53 14ers, more than 600 13ers, and hundreds of other peaks that can be reached without special equipment or expertise. Numerous guides dryly catalog these trails, but Best Summit Hikes in Colorado stands out from them all. Author James Dziezynski has meticulously selected 80+ of the state's absolute best peaks in more than 50 superlative hikes, and his opinionated narrative brings each route to life. Each summit is included because of a notable feature--whether it's the site of a ghost mine or airplane wreckage, has thundering waterfalls or colorful floral meadows, is the best summit for spotting wildlife or bringing out-of-town friends, or is very accessible. Some peaks offer unique opportunities, such as a trailhead accessible only via a steam-powered railroad. Several summits are described in no other publication. Covering all Colorado's major mountain ranges, including the well-known Sangre De Cristo, Gore, Sawatch, Indian Peaks, and Maroon Bell wilderness areas to the lesser-known Grenadiers, Medicine Bow, and Outer San Juan peaks, this distinctive guide makes it easy to select exactly the right hike for the right day, the right mood, and the right companions.

Flyfisher's Guide to Colorado's Easy Access Mountain Lakes
Author: Phil Tereyla
Publisher: Wilderness Adventures Press
ISBN: 1940239168
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
Colorado's high country is rich with amazing scenery and big, beautiful fish. Unfortunately, many of these highland fisheries are impractical to access. But thanks to veteran fishing guide and writer Phil Tereyla, over 60 mountain lakes in Colorado that are under three miles to access in all corners of the state are now fully outlined and covered in this wonderful new flyfishing guidebook, the Flyfisher's Guide to Colorado's Easy Access Mountain Lakes (Wilderness Adventures Press, 2021). Difficulty to access does not equate to quality fishing; many of Colorado's easy-access alpine gems host fantastic fishing for large trout, including lots of drive-to lakes and reservoirs. Most of these lakes also have the same signature scenery and solitude that has made Colorado so popular for fishing and otherwise. Tereyla shows us where to catch all three subspecies of native cutthroat trout (greenback, Colorado River, and Rio Grande), arctic grayling, big brown trout, lake trout, rainbow trout, cuttbows, splake, tiger trout, tiger muskie, and more. He also covers tributary streams, inlets and outlets, the right times to pursue these awesome fish, and the flies that work. This book is perfect for families, aging and disabled anglers, and those who would rather spend their day casting to large trout than hiking. It also makes a great gift for the angler who has it all. Don't miss this opportunity to indulge in all that Colorado's alpine lakes have to offer! Pick up your copy today!
