USA WEST NATIONAL PARKS AND TRAILS WITH MAPS AND GUIDE
The Complete Hiking & Camping Guide to the American West
The American West contains some of the finest hiking on earth. This book helps you do it properly.
From the granite walls of Yosemite to the volcanic summit of Mount Rainier, from the slot canyons of the Colorado Plateau to the redwood-lined coast of California; the American West's hiking landscape is enormous, varied, and in places genuinely unforgiving. This guide covers five regions in full: the Sierra Nevada, the Cascades, the Rocky Mountains, the Southwest Desert, and the California Coast.
Inside this book
The Sierra Nevada
Half Dome, Clouds Rest, the John Muir Trail over the Evolution Basin, the Panorama Trail circuit. Full route guides for each, including the permit lottery explained in full and the genuine physical danger of the Half Dome cables in wet conditions. Afternoon lightning protocol for above-treeline routes.
The Cascades
The Skyline Trail at Mount Rainier, the Sahale Arm in North Cascades, the Three Sisters Wilderness, Crater Lake's Garfield Peak, and the Enchantments lottery; with honest discussion of the region's notoriously variable weather and where the PCT corridor intersects with day-hiking possibilities.
The Rocky Mountains
Longs Peak's exposed Keyhole Route with a clear account of the scrambling and the window of safe conditions. Zion's Angels Landing with the permit system. Grand Teton's Amphitheater Lake. Mount Washburn for wildlife. The chapter opens with an honest discussion of altitude sickness; the most underestimated hazard for visitors from lower elevations.
The Southwest Desert
Canyonlands' Chesler Park Loop and the Joint Trail. Bryce Canyon's Figure Eight. Monument Valley Navajo Tribal Park access. White Sands' Alkali Flat Trail with the sand navigation warning that first-timers consistently ignore. Heat management and water carrying treated with the seriousness the desert demands.
The California Coast
McWay Falls and the Ewoldsen Trail in Big Sur. The Lost Coast Trail with the tidal schedule. Point Reyes' Bear Valley Trail. A full guide to the Channel Islands' Smugglers Cove; including the boat logistics most guidebooks leave out entirely.
25 flagship trails across 5 regions. Every piece of information you need to plan and execute a hiking trip to the American West; and none of the padding that fills most guidebooks.
