Reviews & Interviews
"Backcountry guides can sometimes be plodding, written as a textbook rather than an information guide. Other guides are written light and fluffy without any real substance other than their maps.
"It's only through Murphy O. Shewchuk's extensive personal knowledge of the region that he can write a guide filled with all sorts of truly useful information in a style that's enjoyable to read." - S. Paul Varga
Reviews & Interviews
"What makes this book outstanding in its class is the wealth of information. Some may call it trivia, but at its worst it is trivia which rivets the attention of the reader and makes one turn yet another page despite being miles from the scene. Historical data on the region becomes readable fact. Tales of Indians, animals and plants become anecdotes of note. A worthy addition to the bookshelf of any outdoor adventurer." - Henry Frew: Outdoorsman".
