The most comprehensive and authoritative guide to the Olympics, first published more than 35 years ago Sales of this new edition benefit Olympic Mountain Rescue Olympic Mountains Trail Guide is a treasured, classic guidebook to one of the region’s top hiking destinations. Reading Bob Wood’s text is like having an old friend describe last weekend’s hike to you. Wood passed away in 2003 but Bill Hoke, Doug Savage, and volunteers from the Peninsula Wilderness Club picked up the reins to do a thorough update. Every trail has been rehiked and fact checked. Every new trailhead or rerouted path is documented in the descriptions, and 30 all-new trails have been added, bringing the total number of hikes to 206 within Olympic National Park and Olympic National Forest. But Wood’s voice and even his original overview maps have been retained, lending this edition a classic tone while the information is decidedly current.

They carried a most valuable treasure and would become a part of a most fabulous history... They must protect the chains at all cost. Titus Mena is only a common jailer; his life could not have been of much importance to anyone, but that is all about to change. While keeping guard one night, Titus witnesses the miraculous escape of the Apostle Peter as his bound chains fall to the ground and he walks past soldiers blind of his passing. Knowing King Herod will punish Christian followers for this act of God, Titus sets out on a journey to protect the precious relics as Peter goes into hiding. Joining Titus are Shafeet and their faithful horses, Hero and Magic. When they discover the metallic chains have turned to gold, they know they must do everything in their power to get them to safety. Pitfalls arise as thieves and King Herod himself do everything in their power to stop the guardians of the relics at all costs-even death. This exciting tale follows the historical route of the apostles and Jesus as Titus unearths the truth about the mysterious circumstances of one of God's most astonishing yet obscure works-The Chains of St. Peter.
