I bought this for the North Rim hikes, which we took 8 out of the 11 featured. I was pleased with the hike descriptions & I like the miles & direction part. Some of the hikes are on the long/difficult side, but we were able to just do part of them.

There are 6 hikes for the South Rim that we haven't had a chance to try yet.

Easy read. I will reserve judgment until I have tried the trails.
