And while he’s still in love with many of the old trails, some of them have become unsafe or less accessible. The good news is that this gave him the chance to fall for some new trails, which are happily now included in this new edition.

This new edition not only gets them to the best of nature not far from their door, but looks tremendous on an urban coffee table, too.
