Just Do This: Five Realistically-Adventurous, Proven Itineraries for Exploring Some of America’s Greatest National Parks

Description

When planning a trip, have you ever visited travel sites, perused travel blogs, or maybe even combed through a book or two, but still wanted . . . more? Have you ever found those other resources lacking? Have you ever found the advice just a bit too vague, the testimonials a bit too fake, or been put off that you paid money for a two-sentence summary of something you’re about to drop serious money to go visit?

Just Do This is a new take on the travel book. Based around meticulously detailed, tried, tested, and verified itineraries, Just Do This walks you through five once-in-a-lifetime trips to some of the greatest national parks of the American West. With more than 150,000 words, 310 original unedited photographs, 18 detailed maps, and 846 footnotes, Just Do This astounds with the innumerable wonders of the wilderness.

Inside you’ll find five planned-to-the-minute (and verified!) itineraries through some of the greatest national parks in the Lower Forty-Eight including Grand Canyon, Petrified Forest, Zion, Bryce, Grand Teton, Yellowstone, Sequoia, Yosemite, Arches, Canyonlands, and Capitol Reef. Design elements found throughout—like GPS coordinates for every stop, timestamps and durations at each location, and pragmatic at-a-glance maps for planning on-the-fly—ensure the usefulness of the book as a worthy travel companion for even the most-experienced travelers. But, Just Do This is more than just a list of waypoints; written for the thinking person and filled with essays, perspectives, and ideas from great Americans like Benjamin Franklin, John Muir, Edward Abbey, Theodore Roosevelt, and more, Just Do This encourages you to engage intellectually with the stunning vistas and wonders of our national parks. Written by a single author over the course of four years, Just Do This is a testament to the powerful experiences that can be found in the great National Parks of the United States.
