This is a short, but excellent guide to Southern Utah's Hole-in-the-Rock Trail. The author has broken the trail up into a series of segments and for each segment tells the history of that part of the trail, then gives detailed directions on how to see, hike, or drive that section of the trail. It seems that most books focus on the trail from Escalante to Hole-in-the-Rock and then ignore the rest of the trail. Here, the author does a great job of detailing the further challenges that the show more pioneers faced beyond Hole-in-the-Rock. show less

I bought this book for the beautiful photographs and as such it was well worth the purchase price.
