We have the edition that was published in May 2008. This is a fantastic guide book if you like to do hikes -- short or long, easy or strenuous.

Great descriptions and details of recommended hikes in Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks.

[Brian · Rating 2 out of 5]

46 hikes, ranging from short strolls to multi-day backpacks. Although nicely laid out it's range makes this not a top choice. Better to pick a guide geared to one's goals - day hikes / easy hikes / backpacks.
