The book is divided into nine geographical regions along major access roads and includes maps and b&w photos. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

Midwest Book Review
Walks and day trips near fine lodgings in the Sierras make for an unusual title: unusual because many guides to the Sierras assume readers are outdoors-types who will be camping in the wild. It's refreshing to find over a hundred day hikes located near listed lodgings: this approach makes the Sierras much more accessible to the ordinary individual with less outdoors experience. The descriptions of each hike and region clarify fitness levels and areas of interest.

Book Description
This is the ideal book for hikers who prefer to start the day with a good breakfast and end the day with a hot shower. Sally O'Neal Coates shows you where to trek in this land of waterfalls and snowcapped peaks and where to slumber and feast in rustic cabins or charmed B & Bs. The hikes offer something for every outdoor explorer from short level strolls and nature walks to exhilarating all-day adventures.
