Cyclist and trail researcher McCoy presents this comprehensive guide to the Great Divide trail, an unpaved bike route along the continental divide from Banff, Alberta, to the bottom of New Mexico. The book is segmented into chapters covering about one state each, with maps, mile-marked directions, and narration of landmarks broken down into suggested daily itineraries. Recommendations are made for gear and equipment, safety precautions, and convenient locations to restock supplies. Black-and-white photographs of riders and natural attractions including local flora and fauna are included. Annotation ©2013 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
