This is NOT A HIKING GUIDE. This is a MTB guide to Idaho, a fact which eluded the previous two reviewers. THERE ARE time anddifficulty ratings for each trail. It is well done and worthyour time if you are into MTB and would be in Idaho. It alsohas altitude changes for the rides. Very helpful. Enjoy.

Purchased this book for a mountain bike trip to Idaho. I was excited to read about the trail titled South Hills Singletrack Nirvana. While the author kept meticulous detail of the number of creek crossings, he failed to mention that the trail is mostly loose gravel climbing which was impossible to ride. It was not my idea of Nirvana. It was a big disappointment, especially since I drove over two hours to get there. There are better Idaho mtn bike guidebooks out there. A book titled “Good Dirt” is a great guide for riding in the Ketchum/Sun Vally area.
