Summary: This Book rocks like no guidebook I have ever read
Review: Greg and Sue have focused this book on providing serious steep creekers with the info they really need to know. How to figure out what is running and how to know how fast it will drop as well as how to get to the put in and take out. They don't waste time telling you the names of the rapids and the mamby-pamby lines down them. They figure if you can't pick your own lines down class V rapids and not get hammered then you don't belong on that creek anyways. I have only run a handful of the nearly 30 class V creeks in this book, but I hope to get a chance to run them all. A must have for any steep creeker. This guidebook beats the pants off all the other ones I have ever seen including my personal hero William Nealy's. Karl

Summary: A must-have for new england creeking info
Review: This is the best guidebook I've ever seen. No BS, just all the data you want in an easy to use format. I recently returned from a new england creeking trip, and the book was invaluable. But beware, it is definitely directed at the highly experienced creeker; when they say things like "the most difficult rapids aren't visible from the road", what they mean is "the multi-drop, Twitch-worthy class V+ eddyless gorge with no portage route is inaccessible from the road". If you're heading up that way, get it.
