Do you want a Grand Canyon guidebook written by boaters for boaters?
Tom Martin, author of Day Hikes from the River, and Duwain Whitis, publisher of RiverMaps map books, have teamed up to write a guidebook. This is the only guidebook to the Canyon with USGS topographic map backgrounds printed at their original scale, with additional details in an easy-to-read format. It is also the only guide with maps extending to South Cove in Lake Mead. Each map shows campsite locations, rapids, scout points, river miles and other points of interest. The accompanying text describes all campsites on the park inventory (and some extras), with campsite pull-in information, geological, botanical and historical points of interest. Maps and photos are in color. The guide is 8.5" x 14" spiral-bound to lay flat. The 118 pages are printed on tough waterproof and tear-resistant synthetic paper. 978-1-7324017-4-7. 51 maps, 297 miles, all-color photos and shaded topographic relief. $35.95 Order Day Hikes from the River, Guide to the Colorado River & Big Water, Little Boats and save. Combination available for $70 |
We doubt this picture will sell more books but at least you'll know whom to accost when you see them on a river near you. Hint, they may not be as clean and shiny then. Tom is on the right and Duwain on the left. |
Congratulations to Tom and Duwain for winning the 2007 National Outdoor Book Award for best adventure guidebook for the third edition of the Guide to the Colorado River through Grand Canyon published in 2007. |
