 A well done guide May 05, 2007
By R Michael Small
"Where does the signature show on my profile?"
If you like to hike, I highly recommend this book even if you are not planning a trip into the Grand Canyon.
Having ventured off the beaten path through the woods of New England, and flown over the Grand Canyon, I was interested in reading an easily digested book about hiking the GC; Mr. Lane has written, in my opinion, a winner.
Mr. Lane provides information about the trails, recommended equipment, the canyon and its history and hazards (as well as how to avoid them), necessary permits and generally how to have the most pleasant experience possible. He even provides charts of expected temperatures and sunrise/sunset times, as well as taking a few "side steps" to briefly describe a few of his experiences. Finally, the maps that populate the book are useful, and Mr. Lane is obviously a keen photographer.
The book is aptly named and perfectly sized to actually be carried during the hikes so there is no need to read and try to remember; take the book with you.

Excellent, helpful, answers the right questions Apr 14, 2008
By James C. Sellers
"J. Sellers"
Excellent book, answers lots of questions ranging from temperatures, sunrise/sunset times, elevation gain, appropriate equipment and trail conditions to what to eat (and avoid eating) and how to avoid health problems and how to treat them if they occur. Although for a trip to Phantom Ranch (our plan) one wants to consult a number of sources, this is the best I've seen so far at answering questions. Practical, easy reading and worth more than the price.

Beautifully Photographed, a steal for the price May 23, 2007
By Red Tank Top
I would have expected a guide as well done as this to be twice the price. The author has taken some stunning photographs and backed them up with consise trail information. Makes me want to go back again soon. Excellent book.Hikernut's Grand Canyon Companion - A Guide to Hiking and Backpacking the Most Popular Trails Into the Canyon: Bright Angel, South Kaibab & North Kaibab Trails

A real gourmet trail mix May 07, 2007
By Colleen A. Patterson
"Hikernut's Grand Canyon Companion" combines the beauty, reverence and heart-opening joy of a National Geographic-like photo shoot with a commonsense, informational and inspirational format. Its fresh, direct and folksy style suggests the humor and etiquette required to live peaceably in nature among our four-legged (and two-legged) brothers and sisters. Brian Lane is a straight arrow and this one hits the target.
Be prepared to shift through several brainwave states as Lane is a right/left kind of guy who moves easily from the poetic to the practical. If you get sidetracked while studying his evocative photos have no fear. A very comprehensive Index and Table of Contents will bring you gently back to your subject matter. He encourages the reader as well as cautions, modeling the type of initiative and soberness required for entering into a wilderness experience with the Grand Canyon. The reader feels as if he/she is walking down the trail with him. At certain junctures Lane swats the reader like a Mama Bear reminding him/her to keep respect for the wilderness, make a minimal impact and stay safe.
To those who still heed Colin Fletcher's advice to "take care of the ounces and the pounds will take care of themselves," Hikernut's Grand Canyon Companion is a gem that should be tucked into every backpack that descends into the glorious, majestic Grand Canyon. The paper has a lovely sheen that stands up to backcountry handling. It also makes Lane's photos pop and entice.
Armchair travelers and hiking nuts alike will enjoy Brian Lane's fun-packed volume--it's a real gourmet trail mix!

 Great little book for your backpack Mar 20, 2010
By Bryan Stewart
I bought this book, another book and detailed map of the canyon before hiking. This book and the maps I actually took with me while hiking. It is an easy read and was a great source while down in the canyon for determining what hike to do during the day. One of the trails was closed while I camped at Bright Angel. Pulled out this book and was able to make adjustments and pick a new trail. Wonderful to have since it was so little but good information.
