Comments about Biking Wisconsin's Rail-Trails:
I was looking for a book that covered all the Wisconsin rails to trails and this book appears to have all of them so if gives me a good starting point. There are some improvements though that this book needs. The pictures in my book are dark and difficult to view. This could just be my book though. The rest of the print is fine so I doubt that is the case though. My main disappointment with the book is that there appears to be no order to the trail layout. There is a table of contents but instead of having trails arranged by region or trails that join one another the trails are just where ever in the book. I also don't feel that the parking locations or trail start/end points are listed clearly. It would be nice to have listed parking points specific locations. The one trail I was looking at I couldn't really tell where it started. Now if you are familar with the town it's probably no problem but to find it on your own.....well the book should list it like they claim to. The book I have is the second edition. The book is from 2004 so to help out they could have listed GPS points as well. On the plus side the book does give a good starting point for research and where trails are located. From there I can use the web to get more information on the trail and find what I need. The book could be a lot better though. Also for [$]I don't feel that I over paid but maybe what I don't like about it is the reason it's [$] Overall I would recommend the book just don't get your hopes up. Now if I were to find another book that was better I may not recommend this one but this is the first book that I have.
