Afoot and Afield in San Diego > Customer Review #1:
Essential for any San Diego hiker

Lets put it this way. On the San Diego bulletin boards for hiking enthusiasts looking to get together for hikes, they discuss the hikes by referencing page #s from this book. They dont bother naming the book because it is understood that everyone owns a copy. No book achieves that level of acceptance unless it is thorough and useful.
For hiking in San Diego county, this book cant be beat.

The only book youll need

Author Jerry Shad has over the years compiled in book form( he also write articles for various publications) the best throughly life experienced hikes for the outdoor enthuisiast. This is the only book youll need to explore San Diegos trails, both popular and less traveled. His explanations and advice for options on the trails are invaluable and accurate. I have two copies of his book , a vintage edition(still good information) and the current publication, one in the vechicle and one for home reference. Take a look at the index in the sample pages and youll see that all of the points on the county compass are covered. This is an essential tool for the hiker. The organization of the book is simple , concise and specific covering all areas of the county. The photographs and illustrations are helpful too. As stated by others this is the only book youll need to explore San Diego on foot. Buy this classic and youll get years of pleasure from the advice before you hit the trail.

Anza Borrego Desert

This is my all time favorite guide to exploring the Anza Borrego Desert. I did most of the hikes in the desert region over the course of several years, and got a great sense of the authors relationship to the land. Im buying it again after having lent it out and lost it. I wish there were hiking guides this good for other places I love.
