Escalante River 2013 Canyon Atlas: Utah Slot Canyons

Joe Berardi has published another book for hiking Utah slot canyons. The Escalante River 2013 Canyon Atlas: Utah Slot Canyons is a compilation of topographical maps that are required by any hiker attempting to hike the remote and rugged slot canyons of the Grand Staircase – Escalante National Monument region. The custom detailed maps make finding and hiking these great slot canyons much easier and the maps have key GPS coordinates for finding the trailheads or the canyon entrances. This book of maps eliminates the anxiety of trial and error hiking to find some of the best slot canyon adventures in the United States. A set of imagery topographical maps are provided for displaying a bird’s eye view of the terrain providing a more three dimensional route to the trailheads. This atlas eliminates the need to buy multiple 7.5x7.5 quad maps for a single hike and pays for itself by not having to buy multiple high resolution maps. The author has wrestled with large maps on a windy day and has produced an atlas that is a pleasure to use out on the trail. The featured canyons in this book are: Big Horn Canyon, Brimstone Gulch, Dry Fork of Coyote Gulch, Egypt Canyons, Escalante Ravine, Harris Wash, Little Death Hollow, Neon Canyon, Peek-a-boo Gulch, Red Breaks, Spencer Canyon, Spooky Gulch, Tunnel Slot and Zebra Slot. This book makes an excellent supplement to the author’s “Slot Canyon Hikes & Adventures” book and or any other hiking books for this area.
