Easy Hiking in Southern California Book

Offering easy access to Southern California's most beautiful environments for anyone who loves the outdoors, Easy Hiking in Southern California focuses on hikes where a heavy backpack and a week of planning aren't needed. Using mileage and time estimates, directions and tips, it gives readers a chance to get away from the pavement, exhaust fumes, and tour buses, and into the wilderness.
