Idaho is truly one of the last frontiers in the United States. With more actual wilderness than any other state in the union, save Alaska, Idaho offers the unique opportunity to see the North American continent as it once was-wild and mysterious. Hiking Idaho, formerly The Hiker's Guide to Idaho, introduces you to the wonders of Idaho's spectacular backcountry-the hard, pink granite of the Sawtooth Mountains, beloved by climbers; the popular and very accessible Iron Bog and Fishpole Lakes; the Big Horn Crags in the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, the largest wild tract in the lower 48 states; and less-explored pockets. In Hiking Idaho, you'll find outings suited to hikers of all levels of experience, ability, and persuasion, taking you to lush rain forests, quiet meadows, and colorful canyons. Seasoned Idaho outdoor enthusiasts describe 100 of their favorite hikes, with the help of photos and maps. The book also presents the latest available information on changes in the land, due to weather-related damage, wildfires, or trail reconstruction. With all that, Hiking Idaho is a valuable source, worth much more than its weight. Save a space in your pack, easy to get to, for Hiking Idaho.

Drive north to Alaska and the Yukon with Erik Molvar and the help of his latest and best FalconGuide. Molvar, who has written widely read hiking guides to Glacier, Waterton Lakes, and Olympic national parks, gets behind the wheel and hits the highways, some gravel, that lead deep into the Yukon and the 49th state. In Scenic Driving Alaska and the Yukon, Molvar makes plenty of stops on these drives through the North Country and brings along his knowledge of botany, history, wildlife biology, and anthropology. You'll find brief but enlightening explanations of pingoes, eskers, and suspect terrains. Molvar provides thumbnail tales of colorful, gold-rush era characters like Skookum Jim, Tagish Charlie, and the Mad Trapper of the Yukon. He also includes stories of the native peoples, abandoned mining camps, wildlife, massive glaciers, and expanses of alpine tundra. Molvar makes a rich landscape richer and a fantastic journey even more inviting. Don't simply drive north. Know the natural and cultural history of the land, the villages, the lakes and rivers, and the people you travel among.
