Oregonian article on Walk There! book

walktherecover.gif“The folks at Metro make it easy to go on urban treks with their indispensable “Walk There!” guide, which has 50 walks throughout the area, including a number that are so obscure that even residents might not know about them.

The guide comes in a handy 4 1/2-by-6-inch size — perfect for sliding into the side pocket of your cargo shorts — and is a bargain at $9.95 at area bookstores. Even better, Metro has the maps and detailed walk descriptions available online, making it a cinch to download and print maps to guide you to your newest urban adventure. ”

Note: the small maps used in the Oregonian article are not the detailed ones in the book–apparently the newspaper wanted simplified versions as thumbnails for the story.
