Title: Awesome detail for those getting into backcountry in NE
Review: I am fairly new to the AT game and exploring off resort. I went to Tuckerman Ravine on Mt Washington with some friends and this book served as a great resource for what to know and expect going into the trip. Excited to explore some of the other destinations next season!
