It's been 10 years since the release of the first edition of 60 Hikes Within 60 Miles: Seattle, which makes 2016's third edition the 10th Anniversary Edition! This popular hiking guide has been completely updated by authors Andrew Weber and Bryce Stevens for this new release, featuring three all-new hikes: Evans Creek Preserve, Mount Teneriffe and Teneriffe Falls, and Greider Lakes. Brand-new header info for all 60 hikes includes vital information on hiking with dogs. There is also updated trail information, text, maps, and/or photos, etc., for such hikes as Iron Goat Trail, Nisqually National Wildlife Refuge, Dirty Harry's Peak, Flaming Geyser State Park, Mailbox Peak, Franklin Falls, and many others. In addition, the book covers Washington State's two newest Wilderness Areas, Wild Sky Wilderness (established 2008) and Alpine Lakes Wilderness (expanded in 2014).
Andrew Weber has been exploring the Pacific Northwest for more than a decade. He currently resides in Seattle. A lifelong Washingtonian, Bryce Stevens has explored the Cascade Range, the Olympic Mountains, and the Puget Sound. Bryce lives in Seattle with his wife and two sons.
