The Western New York region encompasses forested hills, rolling farmland, picturesque villages, and natural wonders like the Genessee River Gorge, Allegany State Park, and Chautauqua Lake. Ehling guides you to plunge-pools and glacial caves, past fossil beds and through "rock cities"-all the results of the area's distinctive geological history. Many of the hikes described here follow maintained footpaths, including portions of the Finger Lakes Trail, the Conservation Trail, the Letchworth Trail, the Eastside Trail, and Westside Overland Trail. The other hikes, ranging mostly throughout the numerous state forests within the region, utilize walking paths, dirt roads, and jeep trails. Each hike includes directions to the trailhead, route distance, approximate hiking time, vertical rise, a topographical map, and detailed descriptions of the trail itself. In addition, Ehling enlarges your experience with his knowledge of the flora and fauna of the area's forests, wetlands, and gorges; as well as other land formations such as kettle lakes, eskers, and kames. Black-and-white photographs and maps throughout

Reference

The largest, most beloved wilderness in the East is now open to mountain bikers, and Peter Kick's new guidebook tells you where and how to enjoy it. "The Park" is how Northeasterners refer to Adirondack State Park, a 6-million-acre wilderness of hemlock stands, beaver ponds, mile-high peaks, solitude, adventure--and world-class mountain biking. Inside the Park's Blue Line you'll find mile upon mile of hard-packed dirt roads, not to mention a well-developed network of bike trails ranging from the gentle to the exhilarating. Now Peter Kick, author of two previous mountain biking guidebooks, has selected 25 of the Park's best trails, including tours for every rider at every level of skill. Kick has scrupulously sought out only legal mountain biking trails; most importantly, he places special emphasis on riding each trail responsibly, without damaging the Park's unique and fragile ecology. In addition to providing directions to the trail, each write-up includes up-to-date maps and regulations, surface conditions, trail highlights, nearby bike repair shops, and detailed, mile-by-mile directions.
