White Mountain Guide (AMC's Comprehensive Guide to Hiking Trails in the White Mountain National Forest)

For day-hikers and backpackers alike, AMC's White Mountain Guide has remained the most trusted and indispensable resource for 115 years. This 31st edition has been updated and revised with turn-by-turn descriptions of more than 500 trails, as well as trip planning advice, safety information, and a checklist of New Hampshire's 4,000-footers. Hikers can discover new routes and better plan for old favorites with a list of suggested hikes in each region, along with easy-to-follow trail statistics charting cumulative distance, elevation, and time between waypoints. Included in this boxed set are six pull-out topographic maps, updated to reflect the latest trail openings, closings, and reroutings. GPS-charted by AMC's cartography department, these maps include trail-segment mileage; hut, lodge, camping, and shelter locations; wilderness-area boundaries; AMC shuttle stops, and more. Whether you're backpacking through the Presidentials or taking a day hike to one of the region's many stunning waterfalls, the White Mountain Guide is the one book you absolutely must have.
