Summary: Good Info, but...
Review: I purchased this book in preparation for a trip to the front range and RMNP. It provided everything that I (thought) I needed. For each trail, it provides information on where the trail is, a description of what you will see, the length and terrain and (most importantly to me) how heavily used the trail is.In the end, we spent all of our park time (about one long day total) checking out all of the road-side stops and scenic overlooks. We didnt get to any of the trails I had picked out. Maybe next year we'll get to use the info in the book.

Summary: An excellent guide to Rocky Mountain National Park
Review: Our family used this guide to prepare for our vacation. It is loaded with detailed information on dozens of locations in the Park. It's all presented in an easy to follow format with hikes grouped by location. If I had one gripe, it would be that there's *too* much information - my head was swimming after reading through it all, and I needed help narrowing the choices down. There's basic information on fishing, horseback riding and other activities as well. It's an excellent guide to the area that would serve you well on multiple trips.

Summary: Excellent guide for seeing the park, especially for families
Review: We completed a trip to Rocky Mountain National Park with two children and found this book to be an invaluable guide. It provides an overview of the park and descriptions of 56 separate hikes. It has very clear directions on how to find the starting points for each trail as well as information on the difficulty and distance of the trail. The book also includes a lot of terrific information and ideas about hiking and camping with children. We found everything at the park to be as described in this book. We highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rocky Mountain National Park espcecially those travelling with children.
