Hiking and Exploring the Paria River
He likes it. Husband wanted book, I ordered it.

The Metric distance ruined this book
As an American I lived my life of [. . ] years in feet and miles. I too heard my [. . . ] teacher (nearly 45 years ago) say better get used to metric the US is the last country on the planet not using it and SOON you will have to use it. Never happened! (except for beverage providers who saw an oportunity to give us less product for the same price!) Wilderness hiking can be very dangerous, you need to know where you are, and I can't be pulling a calculator out every page to figure out how far 13. 7 meters is!! Otherwise the book is filled with very good information. Pick up a detailed map at the trail head the maps in the book are too small to be of any help.

Comprehensive but dense
It's very comprehensive, but looks like it was laid out with an old fashioned typewrite. Got this book in preparation for a trip to the area. Still, if you plan to hike the Paria River, it's definately a good resource. . .
