Title: Fantastic guide, saves lots of time in planning.
Review: I've been planning trips to the western Nationa Parks for months, but find the resouces on the NPS to be rather difficult to use. I also used Google Maps, but that is arduous and time consuming.This guide makes it easy to find campgrounds, trails and scenic drives at every National Park that I intend to visit. I also does a great job of highlighting the best times of the year to visit, along with other attractions.

Title: Wonderful book!
Review: This is a beautifully done book! All the gorgeous color pictures entice you to want to leave right now for any national park! Has lots of good informationâ¦and thatâs based on the descriptions of the parks Iâve been to so I know what they are talking about. As always, you are still left wanting a bit more information (hence 4 stars), but really this is a great book and I would recommend it even though there are now 63 designated NPs. Donât worry about that, just get this one until the count gets higher (like 65+ parks).

Title: Get this book if you plan to visit National Parks
Review: This book is wonderful if you are planning a trip to any National Park. Not only does this book give you the best spots to visit/hike/site see, but it also gives you a list of places to stay in the park and how much it costs. It also gives you places restaurants to eat at and a list of activities you can do while in the park. I highly recommend this book!
