Grand Canyon Handbook offers a unique glimpse into both rims of the canyon, surrounding Indian lands, the Arizona Strip, and the gateway towns. Author Bill Weir leads readers down to the river to explore the wonders within the canyon, describes the Havasupai land of blue-green waters, and explores the Hualapai tribe's spectacular overlooks and scenic drives on the less-frequented West Rim. He also looks at the rarely visited Arizona Strip mountains, panoramas, and canyons that lie to the northwest and includes ample practical advice for travel to nearby Flagstaff, Williams, Kanab, and Page. Weir's detailed depictions of canyon mule rides, pristine forests, and rolling meadows will inspire readers to venture or return to the region, and the array of maps, Internet addresses, and time-tested travel tips will help them get the most out of their trios.
