Summary: Washington Wow!
Review: I was in the midst of planning a trip out west when I stumbled across "Washington's Wilderness Areas". Needless to say, we're now planning on heading to Washington. Mr. Huschke's writing gives a clear picture of what to expect and how to reach those expectations. The pictures jump off the pages! I highly recommend this book and hope that Mr. Huschke has more in the works.

Summary: Ethereal Hikes
Review: This book is a wonderful fusion of wilderness hiking guide and photo essay, fabulously bridging the gap between funcionality and literary artwork.
I've personally hiked in over ten of the areas described by Mr. Huschke, and have not once managed to find the words to convey their beauty in as magic a manner as he. At the same time, the crisp and accurate detail of each hike-description clearly show the great deal of time spent in growing intimate with each trail and side-trail.
I've read dozens of guides to the Pacific Northwest outdoors, but the photos and background depictions in this book make it easily the finest I've ever encountered. I agree with the first review of this book in anxiously awaiting the next effort from these two gifted artists.
