Excellent & an Excellent Value (4 Parks in One Book)
But the two women that wrote this one did an excellent and thorough job. The only reason I usually buy Falcon Guides is if there's no other guide for that park, I think they're just OK. The descriptions for each trail tell you what to expect at literally almost every turn. (They'll say things like "at 1. 3 kilometers you'll come to this mountain, at 1. 6 km you'll reach a lake where the turn can be hard to find, so. . . " etc. ) If you've ever had to find your way through a poorly marked national park trail, you'll know how valuable that can be. Also, they have the guts to come out and say things like "this trail is too much work for not enough scenery" and then back it up with evidence, not just leave it as their opinion. This will probably let you save a lot of time if your vacation time is limited, as it usually is. I would have liked to see a few more pictures, but other than that they did a great job. Plus, it has four national parks in one book, so it's a pretty good value.
