A very basic guide to shorter hikes in Zion, Bryce, and surrounding area. Wish it had more descriptions of why each hike was worth taking (highlights, sites seen, etc.), but it was nice that it included a few non Zion/Bryce hikes in the area.

The book has concise descriptions and easy-to-follow maps for twenty-two hikes.

They describe the best routes for those with limited abilities or time without missing the splendor of the area.

You can find half-hour to full-day adventures.

Hikes that can be done with kids.

The hikes are ranked easiest to most challenging.

You can also find GPS coordinates for trailheads.

He provides good details on what to see and especially the native fauna of the area.

The mile markers to trail connectors and interested sites are marked at the front end of the hiking information which I also like.

So many places to see and hike in two of Utah's five national parks. My very favorite is BRYCE! I love the colors and the geographical sights are beautiful and surreal. I especially love seeing this park in the winter when the snow and red rocks contrast each other.

Good book and it came in handy for saving hikes I want to do in AllTrails for my next trip to Zion

Succinct with useful maps and directions. Would appreciate a picture or two showing what each trail is showcasing.
