A sequel to Hiker Mike's Best Hikes -- a guide to hikes in and around Toronto -- this volume goes further afield in southern Ontario, as far as Algonquin Park and Temagami; further still to the Adirondacks, Bahamas, and BC, and as far afield as Everest.
Geared to weekend strollers and ardent trailbusters alike, Hiker Mike's second book takes us on warm-up hikes in and around Toronto before venturing out into southern Ontario's valleys, woods, gorges, ridges, moraines and cliff country. Then farther -- to Algonquin Park, Temagami and the Adirondack Mountains of New York State. Too arduous? Join Hiker Mike for holiday hikes in the Bahamas. Too cushy? Follow him to Vancouver's Whistler, the Nootka Trail on Vancouver Island, or as far afield as Everest base camp! Whatever your interests or skill level, it's time to lace up your boots and follow the hiking Mike on the trail to affordable fitness, walk-away weight loss and the lighter side of enlightenment.

Actor, writer and broadcaster, Mike Kirby continues his quest for the "geographical cure." From the jungles of Belize, the Yucatan and downtown Toronto, to the mountains and rainforests of Tobago, Grenada and Canada's west coast, to the high kingdoms of Nepal, Tibet and the Niagara Escarpment, Hiker Mike hits the trail to adventure with a boyish excitement belying his actual boomerish age. He can be heard enthusiastically reporting his own "call of the wild" hikes weekend mornings on CFRB AM1010, Toronto.
