1: Very good guide
We carried this guide in our trip to the Canadian Rockies and it helped us a lot. We had information of all the available hikes. It is a very highly recommendable product if you are planning to visit this area.

3: Best, most practical guide
Best and most useful information for trip. Well written and concise. Much better and more useful than Frommer.

4: Excellent and Thorough
I'm going to the Canadian Rockies for my honeymoon, and I couldn't ask for a better guide. The author includes every detail one could want. I'm looking forward to using it on the trip. I can tell I've chosen the right place, because the author himself has chosen to live there!

5: An excellent buy
We spent a week in the Canadian Rockies, using this book as our guide. The book gives excellent recommendations for accomodations and activities - we did not go wrong following them. It gives more information that is beyond the basic, "usual", details. It also includes descriptions of many hikes, from 1-hour hikes to full-day hikes, as well as description of road-accessible sites for the non-hikers.
