| Our Review | Opinion of the webmaster, subject to debate |
Are there things to do in Nevada other than chase aliens, gamble or buffet? Many would say no, but author Bruce Grubbs disagrees. He presents 80 fine hikes thoughout the State of Nevada, including 20 in close proximity to Las Vegas, including the striking Red Rock area, a mere 30 minutes north of the Strip. This book contains clear maps and directions for the hikes, rates their difficulty, and adds other pertinent info needed to ensure you survive the experience. Remember, you can always buffet afterward with a clear conscience. This book provides a good back-up activity for those times the aliens just refuse to show. This is the newly rivised and expanded edition. (Formerly titled The Hiker's Guide to Nevada.) -- tm

Beyond the neon glare of Nevada casinos lies some of the most rugged and beautiful backcountry in the West. Here are shimmering desert salt flats, shady redrock canyons, dramatic alpine peaks, and lush pine forests. The Hiker's Guide to Nevada, by Bruce Grubbs, takes you to these spectacular wild lands.
The Hiker's Guide to Nevada is the only book that covers the entire state. It includes detailed descriptions to fifty hikes, supplemented by accurate maps and scenic black-and-white photos. The hikes range from easy strolls to strenuous multi-day backpacks. The guidebook also contains short descriptions of the geology, natural history, and human history of the Silver State's backcountry.
The Hiker's Guide to Nevada is the most authoritative guide to Nevada's backcountry -- from Great Basin National Park to the Ruby and Snake mountains and to the Red Rocks. It is an essential item in any backpack.
