Though the trail that these devoted pioneers broke across raw frontier was used for several years afterward, no highway was built over most of the route because it was deemed too rugged for modern vehicles. In addition to the historical value of the story of these pioneers, this guide includes road logs, maps, and hiking trails along the historic trail. It also points out fascinating natural history along the way, making A Guide to Southern Utah’s Hole-in-the-Rock Trail a significant reference for a variety of readers.
Stewart Aitchison is the author of A Traveler's Guide to Monument Valley; Grand Canyon: Window of Time; and Red Rock Sacred Mountain: The Canyons and Peaks from Sedona to Flagstaff. He is a longtime resident and guide in the Southwest.
