2 comments about A Guide to Washington's South Cascades' Volcanic Landscapes.

1. A great way to understand the wierd geology you see when hiking and driving through southern Washington. Covers volcanic geology from the Mt. St. Helens area south to the Oregon border.



2. This book provides an inventory of the major and minor features of a world class volcanic province. Few people have seen as much of the area as have these authors of the book (Marge Mueller and Ted Mueller, with photographs by Ira and Bob Spring).....it is a superb introduction to the geologic history of the region.
   
   In 1980, peaceful Mt. St. Helens erupted violently, showering the Washington, Idaho, and Montana landcapes with ash. Now explorers can experience firsthand the drama of volcanic cinder cones, lava flows, caves, craters, and more.
   In addition to Mt. St. Helens, you will also find informaiton on hikes, treks, and car trips to volcanic sites such as Mt. Adams, the Columbia River Gorge, and Mt. Rainier, along with fascinating historical background on the regions's geology and indigenous flora dn fauna.

1. Amazon's description tells it all. Updated annually, I have no idea why I continue to come up with a 1998 edition. I currently use this edition (bought it two years ago) and am constantly running into areas where the pace of progress has left the mapbook useless and indeed dangerous in some cases. The 2000 edition is on store shelves now as Rand McNally now publishes the Thomas Guide.

   As a service to its customers, Amazon must begin identifying where they are selling obsolete material. I guess some might want such an outdated reference for nostalgic reason but for those trying to find their way around the "center of the universe" you'll do best getting a guide published in the same century!

1 comments about Rand McNally Washington Easyfinder Map (Rand McNally Easyfinder).

1. Tired of folded maps that tear at crease after a few uses or which don't fold back no matter how hard you try? The Rand McNally EasyFinder for Washington (state) solves the problems. The same size as your basic road map, it is laminated for durability, folds well, and has all the basics one needs in a local map: the state map is clear and large, and has an index to place names and the small local maps for Seattle, Spokane, Olympia, Mt Rainier, Yakima, and downtown Seattle are thumbnails showing the major highways and roads (you'll need detailed maps if you're planning to stay!). There is a mileage map (not chart) for the west and northwest states as well. All maps are bright, clear and easy to use. Don't be without this map or others in the series!
