The guide to buy...

My father and I prefer to travel without planning too many days ahead of ourselves. We'd finished two nights of packing into Organ Pipe National Monument and still had a week ahead of us. We weren't sure what came next. East to Kofa National Wildlife Refuge? West to Tucson? Luckily, we found this godsend of a book sitting pretty in the visitor center store. I am sure this book is fast becoming the essential guide to packing in Arizona. I am almost afraid to recommend it because I am giving away so many well-kept secrets: Aravaipa Canyon, Sycamore Canyon, Picacho Peak, Angel Basin... some of the greatest lesser-known places in the Southwest. I have followed this guide down countless miles of forest road to some of my favorite hikes in the West. The guide is well-organized into four climate regions: desert, canyon, mountain, and urban "backyard" hikes for those who only have a few hours. Each description is captivating enough to convince you - and you will never want to leave life on the trail behind you.
