I can't compare this edition to the older one, as I don't have that one. However, this edition is great (no pun intended)! I am very much looking forward to doing this route. The itinerary in the book seems very reasonable. The info is invaluable and quite complete. I would highly recommend this book for anyone interested in doing the Great Divide. In fact, even if you are not interested, and you read this, you will want to do it! ... show more

This is a very informative account of the directions, encounters, and general interesting information about the Great Divide route. We are parents of a bicycler that is traversing this trail at the present. We have been able to follow the route using the maps, get an idea of what he will be seeing, and learning interesting information. We highly recommend it from a parent's perspective. ... show more

    • Not a current map of route
Format: Paperback
The route has a lot of changes since this was written. The commentary was decent though. Not sure it was worth carrying. Got me stuck in an impassible tunnel just north of butte.

Format: Paperback
Just started reading this book for a planned summer ride along the northern part of the route. We went to a slide show by 2 riders and they said that using this book and with the detailed maps that you should also have, made the ride very straight forward. Many of the routes sign posted have been destroyed by gun owners and the distance to way points mentioned in the book were accurate. He also gives many pointers on equipment and supplies for beginners who are thinking of doing the route. ... show more
