This hiking guide was all we needed for my family and I to enjoy lovely and easy day hikes in the Santa fe area. The book contained great descriptions of the areas covered, including Bandoleer national Monument and Los Alamos. This guide helped us to get into nature without overwhelming us with complicated directions to reach our destinations. The hikes included in this book were excellent selections of the various choices available to the santa fe day explorer. Thank you Linda and Katherine for such good information and suggestions!
