When I was a newbie traveler, I made many mistakes, forgot to take essential items, and just made some bad choices. Over the years, through experience and learning from others, I have learned what you need to do to travel as safely as possible, what essential items to take, how to take care of your health, and how to make the most of your trip.

The “mountain men” were the hunters and trappers who fiercely strode the Rocky Mountains in the early to mid-1800s. They braved the elements in search of the skins of beavers and other wild animals, to sell or barter for goods. The lifestyle of the mountain men could be harsh, existing as they did among animals, and spending most of their days and nights living and camping out in the great unexplored wilds of the Rockies.

Story
For 30 years, drummer, author, and songwriter Neil Peart had wanted to write a book about "the biggest journey of all in my restless existence: the life of a touring musician." Finally, the right time, and the right tour. In the summer of 2004, after three decades, 20 gold albums, and thousands of performances, the band Rush embarked on a 30th Anniversary World Tour. The "R30" tour traveled to nine countries, where the band performed 57 shows for more than half a million fans. Uniquely, Peart chose to do his between-show traveling by motorcycle, riding 21,000 miles of back roads.

Story
Thoreau gives an account of three canoe and hiking journeys - by himself and with others - through the mostly uninhabited forests of Maine in the 1850s. Identifying birds, trees and plants by their botanical as well as their common names, he also records the Indian names of lakes, rivers and plants. He investigates the connections between waterways and trails, and provides detail on camping, fishing and hunting in the woods, using whatever is at hand. Extolling the beauty of the wilds that he encounters, Thorough’s narrative is also imbued with elements of his philosophy.

Exceptional Guide To The PNW!
I listened to this book as I've visited Seattle twice and barely got out of town to see and do things. I've got another trip planned in a few months and wanted someone who knows the area to give me ideas of things to do, and I got what I was asking for in this book. The author provides many options for sightseeing, day trips, overnight trips, parks, trails, small towns, hikes, and more. I suggest that you grab a pen and paper while listening and take notes! I, unfortunately, was driving while I was listening and couldn't take notes, but the narration is so easy to listen to I will gladly listen again! I highly recommend a listen even if you're only visiting the PNW for a weekend and looking for things to do.

New vacation spot found!
This travel guide on the Pacific Northwest is like a goldmine of awesome adventures! It's got all those magical places like mountains, parks, and springs you hear in fantastical storybooks. It's even got some secret spots and small towns so you don't have to squeeze with other tourists. The narrator's voice is super easy to listen to, makin it a breeze to learn about the must-visit cities and even restaurants. Honestly, I never even thought about travelinh there before, but now I'm stoked to plan a trip there with my fam. If you want an exciting vacation, I highly recommend this book - can't wait to kickstart this super organized and magical adventure!

educational and helpful
I enjoyed this audio.
If you're looking to explore the Pacific Northwest, this guide will be helpful.
This guide seems to have everything you need to know about traveling to Washington, Oregon and Idaho.
The author took time to provide all the details and you can tell it was researched thoroughly.
I recommend this audio guidebook.

Excellent Guide
I have toured the Pacific Northwest and vowed I would go back on my own. This book made me realize just how much I missed, I didn’t know anything about Idaho in particular and now I really want to go there. This is a great guide for where to go and what to do when you get there. The narrator is excellent. Highly recommended.

Perfect guide tells you the most popular plus unique places to visit in the Pacific NW
This is a unique book in that it is more than just a travel guide with the story telling about the local area. The Pacific Northwest is a uniquely beautiful place with lots to see and do. This book nailed not only the most popular locations but some unique local jaunts too.

Very Highly Informative Guidebook.
I have always debated where my family's following vacation site would be. I have roamed through travel guides but found nothing as exciting and inviting as this travel guide on the Pacific NorthWest. The guidebook has shared the magical and valuable resources that are worth exploring. The spectacular mountain views, the parks, the cuisine, the numerous trials, cultural sites, the festivals, the man-made lakes, and the therapeutical spring in Idaho.
I personally look forward to our next holiday in the North West Pacific States of Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. I expect it to provide me and my family with an opportunity for life-long memories. Excellent documentation!

A SPLENDID JOURNEY AWAITS!
This wonderful guide by author RuthAnn Cole is so vividly related, that it’s a stand-alone work whether you actually visit the multitude of destinations in the Pacific Northwest or not.
I envisioned the hidden gems, tranquil Alpine lakes, pine forests, gorgeous state parks, quaint beachside towns, and other locations as if I were with a highly-experienced guide eager to share her “insider’s” knowledge with me.
There is no question in my mind that when I visit the Pacific Northwest, this one will be on my phone for listening and a hard copy in my backpack for easy reference.
Very highly recommended, not only for the tourist but for enchanting, colorful listening.
