Winner, Benjamin Franklin Silver for TravelThe first and oldest national park in the world can be enjoyed mile by mile with thiscomplete travel guide. Along with fascinating facts and anecdotes, readers will learn of Yellowstone's geyser basins and the frequency of the geysers, out-of-the-way hikes, and flora and fauna.

If you aren't using this Yellowstone Treasures book, you will miss so much along the way and in the park. The book is broken into sections. For example, there's the drive from Canyon to Norris or West Thumb to Canyon, with miles given along each drive or section. Without the book, you'll go buzzing along the highway, missing hidden gems, trails, sights not to be missed. It gives the length of trails, elevation of the hike, what's to see along the hike. It also divides the basin areas into sections (Upper, Lower, etc) and gives you a route to walk the geyers or mudpots, giving a bit of history or detail about each. Without the book, you'll walk the boardwalks without knowing the whole story or history. I missed this book terribly when we headed out of Yellowstone to the Grand Tetons. I had no guide and had no idea what to look for, what to do, where to go for hikes.
