Great Basin National Park and the adjoining Mount Moriah Wilderness and Humboldt National Forest hold some of the West's best kept hiking secrets. Tucked away in the Snake Mountain Range along the Nevada/Utah border, the backcountry forests here are as old as civilization, and the high alpine ridges with 100-mile views rise above the surrounding arid lands. The park's remarkable landscape is home to a diverse group of plants and animals and a wonderful place to escape the maddening crowds.

This book is a comprehensive guidebook organized to help you plan your trips, from short day hikes to long backpack expeditions. The trail descriptions, maps and photos provide first-hand information, which is spiced with tidbits of the area's rich natural and human history.

The guide also includes an index to all the topographic maps you will need, as well as tips on no-trace camping and wilderness safety techniques.
