Celebrating National Hiking Day

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


News and Adventure from Glacier National Park

Mark your calendars: next Monday is National Hiking Day! This is a great opportunity to invite a friend or take a family member out on a hike, especially those that have never really experienced the joys of traipsing through the woods. For those of you who might be asking; yes, this is a relatively new “holiday.” In 2015, the American Hiking Society officially designated November 17th of each year as National Hiking Day, also known as “Take A Hike Day,” to encourage more people to get out and enjoy the great outdoors.

To help celebrate National Hiking Day, I wanted to remind everyone about the trail guide I published just over a year ago, Ultimate Hiking Guide to the Rocky Mountains: Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico.

With Christmas just around the corner, this guide will also make a great gift for all your hiking friends. As a bonus, now’s a great opportunity to get ahead of the Black Friday madness!

 

What exactly is in this trail guide?

* Detailed descriptions for 75 day hikes that lead to tranquil backcountry lakes, roaring waterfalls, deep canyons, alpine meadows and placid glaciers. Many ascend to high mountain passes and summits. All of them will lead you to extraordinary places that offer breathtaking scenery.

* Hikes range from easy strolls to all-day adventures. Many include notes on shorter options, side trips to other nearby destinations, as well as locations of backcountry campsites for those wishing to create a backpacking trip.

* Hikes span across four national parks (Glacier, Yellowstone, Grand Teton and Rocky Mountain), thirteen national forests, two national monuments and one national preserve.

* Each hike covered in this guide includes a detailed trail description, key reference points, specific information you need to be aware of, color photographs, trail maps, and driving directions to the trailhead.

* Each hike also includes key stats that can be reviewed at a glance. This includes key features along the route, roundtrip mileage, total elevation gain, highest elevation, difficulty ratings, and GPS coordinates for the trailhead.

* Tips for planning your trip, safety considerations, and trail access information where applicable.

Ultimate Hiking Guide to the Rocky Mountains is now available on Amazon.
