An absolute must!

This book is so dog-eared I am amazed. We take it everywhere as we travel the US. We have not found a park we didn't like or enjoy in the almost 200 we have managed to find. We have been waiting for a new edition that updates all the new parks, historic sites and monuments that have been added since 2004. It is a "required" companion to the National Park Passport and Annual Passholder Card. It has taken us places we never would have found and given us delightful tours of our wonderful park system across the country. I would totally recommend it for anyone who wants to visit our incredible monuments and parks.
Great Info
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
this book is great. I own the national parks passport and the national parks pass. This is a great companion. Basicly it has info on every place that the NPS owns and runs. Each park has about two pages. The sections are: overview, what to see and do, food lodging and supplies, fees, hours, and regulations, how to get there, and contacts. There isn't a whole lot of info on each park, but it covers the whole country( and US territories). For more info on the parks you can go to nps. and after the dot type gov or go to nationalparks. and after the dot type org , they are both very helpful and informative websites.
A Great Travel Reference

I brought this book with me on a cross-country camping trip and it was extrememly useful. Each park has detailed information on Fees, What To Do, Lodging/Camping, and Hints and Tips. It was a great reference for basic knowledge about the National Parks. It doesn't have overly detailed information (each park has roughly a page to a page and a half), but it did help us decide whether or not we should check out each park. For more detailed information about each park, we simply asked the helpful rangers at each National Park.
