Small, lightweight book list of day hikes in Grand Teton National Park, with a map of each trail and descriptions of the hike and directions to the trailhead. Easy to carry in my backpack or pocket. It is organized by area, then by length of hike. Each hike is given a difficulty rating. Most of them were "easy," but I found a couple "moderates." I only wish the elevation change was listed alongside the distance at the beginning of each hike description. Would use again, or find a similar one that lists elevation change too.

This is a slim volume. There's 20 hikes recommended as easy in the Tetons. To tell you the truth, the Tetons isn't a very big park, so to find 20 is an accomplishment!

Bill gives good trail descriptions & also has the easiest to more difficult hike list. I've been on a few of these trails & his directions seem spot on. Enjoy!
