Day Hiking Eastern Washington: Kettles-Selkirks * Columbia Plateau * Blue Mountains

The most comprehensive day-hiking guide to eastern Washington! Features: 125 hikes, each rated for quality and difficulty Detailed route descriptions and easy-to-follow driving directions Helpful topographical trail maps Quick reference icons for birdwatching, wildflowers, waterfalls, old-growth, fishing, historical interest, kid-friendly, or dog-friendly At-a-glance hike overview chart Hike extension suggestions for those who want a longer outing Info on flora and fauna, natural and human history, and more Eastern Washington offers everything from sagebrush steppe and desertlike expanses to golden woodlands and lush forests. Its attractions range from the very large (the thunderous 186 feet of cascading water at Palouse Falls) to the rather small (the rare Okanogan fameflower). Hiking in eastern Washington, you’ll share the wilderness with elusive lynx, impressive bighorn sheep, cougars, bears, wolves, mountain caribou, and, yes, the occasional rattlesnake. Close to the population centers of Spokane, the Tri-Cities, Walla Walla, Lewiston-Clarkston, Republic, and Colville, these hikes make ideal getaways for locals, as well as destinations worth the drive for those looking to escape western Washington’s dreary rains. **Mountaineers Books designates 1 percent of the sales of select guidebooks in our Day Hiking series toward volunteer trail maintenance.
