Wild Roads Washington: 80 Scenic Drives to Camping, Hiking Trails, and Adventures

It's good to know that a couple of the drives I've been on during my wanderings of the state are represented in this book. Better yet, it's great to know they were represented properly.For those who enjoy travelling this book offers trips a family could take heading East-West across the central part of the state whether than be off, or even ON I-90 or the back roads behind the glorious mountains and forests this state has to offer.Again, having driven several of these prior to owning this book I can vouch for the accuracy. The one thing I wish was offered would have been a larger overall map with the areas annotated for a better options of choices in a spur of the moment detours.

I live in the greater Seattle area. At the beginning of last year I traded in my bad*** liter sportbike and got a nice light sport tourer.Now that I can ride for more than two hours at a time I've been able to take multi-day trips around the Pacific NW.I was not aware of over 50% of the roads contained in this book. To me it's an outstanding value.The book is well written and thorough.After reading it I bought a second one and gave it to a good riding buddy.

I can't wait to try this book out while exploring Wa. It seems to have a lot of good detail. One thing is that I wish people who supplied gps coordinates, as this one does, would also include the coordinate system used. There are three common ones used within the US (plus many more) that could add confusion. As an "old mapper", things like this irritate me, but all-in-all, is not a reason to pitch the book in the river.

Have only done a few of the drives in this book but I am loving it so far. More than it being a good source of information, it is a great source of inspiration.

And only if you want to explore the "wild roads" of western Washington. We have an entire state, and the book leads you to believe it covers the entire state, but most of the book is focused on the west side. Ironically, the west side is much smaller than Eastern Washington... anyhow, it's great for exploring the west side, not so great for the east side.

Very well done. We used this book to find several great drives and camping spots. And to help decide what we could skip since our vacation was only 16 days. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone traveling the back roads of Washington state.

Great for planning short weekend trips and week long vacations.
