Yosemite & the Southern Sierra Nevada: A Complete Guide

by David T. Page

Best Guidebook, 2008
(Outdoor Writers of CA)

Winner: 2009 Lowell Thomas Travel Journalism Award



Gold Award, Travel Guidebook (Bay Area Travel Writers)


The only complete insider's guide to California's Southern Sierra Nevada: roads, trailheads, historical contexts, little-known facts, places to stay, eat, drink, and resupply. Includes Sequoia & Kings Canyon, Mammoth Lakes, Mono Lake, the Owens Valley, and Death Valley.

"The definitive (as well as wonderfully eccentric) guide to the immensity of the southern Sierra. John Muir would be pleased."

Mike Davis, author of City of Quartz, Ecology of Fear and Planet of Slums.


"Open to any page and you'll find a great story, along with details that will inspire travel — and more reading."

Westways (March/April 2010)


"A splendid resource for exploring a remarkable land."

Bill Becher, national-award-winning outdoor journalist.

"...a thorough, entertaining guide to the region... unusually detailed... a joy to read."
