    Submitted by SGT. ROCK a Racer from Edmonton, AB
    Date Reviewed: May 24, 2002
    Duration Product Used:More than 3 years
    Price Paid: $10.00
    Strengths:Comprehensive
    Excellent maps and narrative
    Weaknesses:Too big to go with you
    Not waterproof
    Similar Products Used:Many
    Bottom Line:Superb guide to biking on the eastern slopes of Alberta & the BC Rockies. Covers out of the way areas like Grande Cache. Trail summaries give a very good description of what to expect, like the author has actually rode them.

    This book is now in its third edition, I believe. I own the original edition authored by Gerhard Lepp. Funny to see how the difficulty ratings for trails have dropped in more recent editions, reflecting the advances in bikes and rider skills.

    Pictures are of knobby old dudes with caliper brakes and one piece handlebar-stem-thingys and some of them even have paniers...
