Product Description:
It’s new scenery every step of the way with the only guide dedicated to loop hikes in New Hampshire and Maine • 60 hikes throughout New Hampshire and Maine, from easy half-day trips to extended journeys, many with options to shorten or lengthen the hike • Hikes accessible from the most common vacation destinations, including Bar Harbor and Freeport in Maine, and Conway, Lincoln, and the Lakes Region in New Hampshire • Helpful "Trail Finder" chart lists hikes by features, difficulty, and more It’s hiking with a welcome twist: no tandem driving, no dropping off a car at the end of the trail—and no turning around to hike back the way you came. Jeff Romano hiked more than 450 miles to select the best loop trails in northern New England—from the rolling hills of southern New Hampshire and towering summits of the White Mountains to the large lakes and abundant wildlife of the Northern Forest and rocky coastline of Maine.

Useful features include elevation profiles and charts listing hikes by special interest and best times to go. Information is also included on wildlife, geology, and history.

Regions covered include Acadia National Park, Camden Hills, Baxter State Park, the Maine Coast, Moosehead Lake, the Presidential Range, Mount Washington Valley, Franconia Notch, the Lakes Region, and the Monadnock/Sunapee area.

JEFF ROMANO has hiked in New England for more than 30 years. A resident of Hallowell, Maine, he works with the Maine Coast Heritage Trust, a land trust that focuses on the conservation of state’s unique coastline.

An updated guide to one of the East Coast's most popular hiking venues.

"After more than two decades of hiking," writes Cloe Chunn, "I am even more in love with this place." "This place" is northern Maine, a magnificent and largely unspoiled stretch of landscape encompassing Baxter State Park, the Rangeley Lakes, Aroostook County, and much more. Chunn leads hikers up Maine's highest and most scenic peaks—Mounts Katahdin, Kineo, Traveler, and Doubletop—from gentle grades to vertiginious scrambling along the Knife's Edge. She leads you to waterfalls, remote ponds, lookout towers, swimming holes, and incomparable vistas. Hikes in this revised third edition range in length from 2 hours to 5 days, and provide something for hikers of all abilities. Each hike description includes a topographical map and information on mileage, rise, and terrain. Along the way Chunn provides information on the geology, wildlife, and history of each trail. And she places special emphasis on family hiking—how to choose the best trails for kids, and how to make the trip appealing to hikers of every age. 40 black-and-white photographs and 51 maps

Product Description:
Why a hiking book for Boomers? Because Boomers are a savvy lot and they know that one size does not fit all. While they may be up for adventure and eager to challenge themselves, they wisely want to know what they are getting into before taking the leap. That's exactly what you'll get in this lively and informative hiking book, appropriate for both novice and experienced hiker. Organized into five "Boomer Rating" categories according to the level of challenge, the 75 hikes of this book begin with an honest assessment of the physical demands (and pleasures) of a hike, then give you all the advance trail "intel" necessary to make your day in the woods memorable. Drawing upon first-hand experience, the authors-who didn't start hiking until into their fifth and sixth decades-are eager to encourage others in the upper-age bracket to enjoy the great benefits of hiking. To entice you out, they include a full spectrum of hikes from easy rambles to dozens of peaks, giving you a wealth of helpful and practical advice about the trails, along with entertaining and informative anecdotes about wildlife, trail lore, Maine history, and tips for dealing with creaky joints and cranky knees.

Product Description:
Fifty years ago this June, just out of College, I hitch-hiked from Maine to Alaska.
During that summer, I wandered around the West and Northwest quite a bit, seeing sights and meeting many interesting people. I made it up the Alaska Highway to Fairbanks. The story is comes from my diary, written 1962, lightly-edited and with some added comments. It is a great young man's adventure.
