Grand Canyon Tips: The Local's Guide to Avoiding the Crowds and Getting the Most Out of Your Visit

Entrance lines several miles long?
Hours-long wait to get into the park?
No place to park?
Viewpoints mobbed?
Lodges booked up?
Campgrounds full?

It's hard to avoid these experiences at the Grand Canyon without inside knowledge. That's why I wrote this book. It's based my my decades of experience at the Canyon, as a tourist, a hiker and backpacker, and a tour guide. The book is concise and compact, designed to be an inexpensive guide that you can carry with you. The Kindle edition is available now and the print edition will be out in a few days.

I've been doing a lot of photography at the Grand Canyon recently, and I decided to take advantage of that work and design a new cover for Grand Canyon Guide: Your Complete Guide to the Grand Canyon Region. The old cover was getting a bit long in the tooth!

I'll be doing a signing of The Creaky Knees Guide Arizona: The 80 Best Easy Hikes on Wednesday, March 9, from 5 to 7 pm, at Sibley's West: The Chandler and Arizona Gift Shop.
