We purchased this book on backpacking trips in Washington State at the beginning of the summer in hopes that we could do a few this summer. We indeed did find time for two of the trips detailed in this book. We used the "overview" section to determine which trips were in our desired mileage and elevation gain range. We found the descriptions accurate and helpful. The map provided an overview of the trail and campsite locations while the "trip planner" gave us an idea of distances between landmarks. We especially liked the "Extending Your Trip" section that gives ideas for side trips.
We also purchased two of Craig Romano's day-hiking books which are written in a similar format. We went on many of the day-hikes detailed in these other two books and found them very useful. We look forward to enjoying many more backpacking and day-hiking trips described in these books. They are the perfect resource for year-around hiking in Washington State.

I'm always looking for quick get away ideas. Whether it's backpacking or camping, I like to know what's available.
This book offers 70 overnight and multiday hikes. The reason I gave it only 4 stars was because out of those 70, only 6 were in Eastern WA. We DO have a lot more to offer than 8-1/2% of the hikes.
Not having taken any suggested hikes, I cannot vouch for the information accuracy. I will say it was nicely laid out with directions to trailhead, permits required (if any), points of contact, special features and special concerns addressed before the write-up instead of that information being buried in the text.
I look forward to crossing off a few of these hikes this summer, hopefully.
