I think I could use more info in certain sections, but it's pretty thorough as it is and perhaps the information I'm wishing for would be reinvention of the wheel. As a strict guidebook-starting point and tool to familiarize myself with the area and possible routes to explore it seems to be a good source...although if I don't post for a few weeks, maybe I got lost...

Although a bit outdated, the book offered valuable information for planning my upcoming trip. I still need more data, but this was a wonderful introduction.

Informative, describes a number of routes up the mountain. Useful for choosing and planning routes. But stop at the ranger station for up-to-date information and details.
