    The Definitive Hiking Guide For the San Gabriels
  

*by B***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 21, 2013*

This is probably the most thorough and well written hiking guide for the San Gabriel Mountains that you'll find. I can't compare this 9th edition with the previous versions as I don't have any of the previous editions, however, I can tell you that this book is rock solid. Although the author John W. Robinson is retired, he has turned over the reins to Dough Christiansen to keep the content updated and accurate. And the transition is seamless.Unlike some hiking guides that give you overview information about the hikes, John W. Robinson (and Doug Christiansen) get into the nitty gritty useful hike details without going overboard. And based on the hikes I'm familiar with, the hike descriptions are very accurate.Sure they might forget a detail here and there. Like forgetting to mention the famous "Echo Phone" at the top of Echo Mountain that everyone takes their picture with and shouts through. A curious omission for sure, but certainly not anything that would affect the quality of your hike.But the authors DO provide the key information that you need to know. For example, I did a pre-hike to Big Horn Mine for an upcoming group hike and found all the hike details spot on. Even down to trail details like, "The old wagon road is an easy walk except for a washout near the halfway point that may trouble beginners and young hikers."Along with the very thorough coverage of the hikes, TRAILS OF THE ANGELES also provides a lot of background information and history. Granted, some hikers may find this unnecessary and even consider it fluff, but I find it very useful, informative and enjoyable. All in all, this is superb hiking book. Along with 
  
Afoot and Afield: Inland Empire: A Comprehensive Hiking Guide







  
  
     and 
  
San Bernardino Mountain Trails: 100 Hikes in Southern California







  
  
    , this book will be a valuable resource for many years to come.

    Great classic trips, updated and most welcome!
  

*by K***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 22, 2013*

I can't put into words adequately how much I owe John W. Robinson and now his co-authors for the joy he and they helped me find in the wildernesses of Southern California. I lived away from Southern California for many years and now am back. Naturally, I checked out these two beloved classics, *Trails of the Angeles* and *San Bernardino Mountain Trails*, to see if they'd been updated. Yes, they have been, and they've been given new, sturdier maps!  How I look forward to renewing my love of both ranges again with Robinson & Co.'s help!  *Trails of the Angeles* covers many of my favorite dayhikes, especially Mt. Lowe and Mt. Baden-Powell. *San Bernardino Mountain Trails* took me on many backpacks with friends plus my first solo backpacks, and the book covers my favorite Southern California wildernesses, San Gorgonio and San Jacinto.  You can't go wrong with these two gems. See you on the trail!  (I'll append this review to *San Bernardino Mountain Trails*, too.)

    Only cool people will like this book
  

*by F***Z on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 30, 2020*

If you are the kind of person who enjoys exploring, physical activity and nature then you will enjoy this book. If you enjoy going to remote places and graffiting up the boulders then you will also like this book. That reminds me, stop tagging on boulders!! See you on the trail.
