Compact

Voted 4/5

Small, easy to read, easy to take with you. These books are great if all you are looking for are some easy day hikes. Worth the small amount of money that they cost.

And have done several of the hikes including Grand Gulch from the Collins Spring TH and the Cottonwood Canyon Narrows. The descriptions were right on and it's a good little book to have!
