Description of Northwest Hiker 75 Virtual Hikes of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest and the Mt. St. Helens National Volcanic Monument

Now you can view your hike BEFORE you take it!

The CDs were developed to make "the next best thing to being there" a reality. Often a hiker contemplates a particular hike but is a bit reluctant to try it because the hiker is unfamiliar with the trail details. If the hiker hasn't heard someone talk about it or hasn't read much about it, there is a reluctance to try something new. This is particularly true if there is considerable distance to drive to the trail head.

The Virtual Hike CDs are a solution to this dilemma. By viewing the slide presentation of a hike, a person can make an informed decision regarding whether or not they want to actually do the hike. The thousands of photos presented on these CDs were taken personally by me and are presented in the order that the hike unfolds.
