 Great book, great seller! March 31, 2008
This book came to us in a timely manner, and was in great condition. The book itself is great and full of awesome information on where to hike with your dog in Colorado! Highly recommended!

Just wanted to make a point that I know several of the hikes in this book, and where some are great places to take my dog, there is one in particular that I wouldn't recommend for dogs. I was disappointed in the recommendation of The Bergen Peak trail; I find the trail too narrow and rocky to share with mountain bikers. It was an awful experience and I vowed never to go there with my dog again. I had to be constantly alert to mountain bikers coming from both directions, and I had to pull my dog off of the trail every time they went by because there is not enough room for all of us. I KNOW that mountain bikers are supposed to yield to my dog and me, but I have been in too many situations where they don't; and if they are coming downhill, their momentum is too fast to stop. I prefer to take my dog where I don't have to share the trail with mountain bikers.
Excellent Book! May 12, 2007
This comprehensive work is thoughtfully researched with the four footed companion in mind. Having spent extensive time walking these very paths with my golden retriever Daisy the author obviously has a strong knowledge of the dog paths of Colorado. I highly recomend this book for any dog lover or anyone interested in walking the foot paths of Colorado.
Pretty good May 23, 2006

This book isn't bad. Her hikes are pretty limited to the upper half of the state, though. So if you want to hike in southern Colorado, there aren't many options in this book.
I do wish she'd included all the information for each hike with the trail chapter--there's a chart at the beginning, so you have to flip back and forth between the hike information and the chart (i.e. off leash, easy, solitude, etc...). Also, the directions are a little sketchy on a few of the hikes, so take a map with you!
