Acclaim for the website:
"For those of you who enjoy moving your feet along rough suburban byways, there is nothing better than www.bahiker.com, an obsessively complete guide for hikers that is almost exclusively the work of one woman, Jane Huber, to whom we should all be eternally grateful. An invaluable recreational resource." Jon Carroll, San Francisco Chronicle
