 for rapid orientation September 3, 2008
very short guide showing the most important places and useful especially at the beginning to find a place in the park while driving. But this is all. Not much further information.
 Didn't find this book useful. August 30, 2008
We just took a 12 day trip out west and both Yellowstone and The Grand Tetons were part of our itinerary. I found that this book added nothing to our trip. We also purchased Yellowstone Treasurers by Janet Chapple. This book was excellent and greatly enhanced our enjoyment of the park. She provided some information about areas outside of the park and her coverage of The Grand Tetons was as deep as this book. I would not recommend this book.
 Navigating Yellowstone and Teton July 23, 2008
This book was a birthday gift. What a wonderful friend I have! We spent nine days in Yellowstone NP and we used this book and "A Ranger's Guide to Yellowstone Day Hikes" the entire time. Depending on where you are starting from, you will read the maps from top to bottom or from bottom to top and it can be confusing, but still worth purchasing! We had 6 guide books with us but the other four were not used during driving. This guide also shows you areas where you may want to pull over and explore along the route.

The title says it all, if you are doing any kind of travel around the park past the major sites, you must have this map. It shows elevation changes, more details than the standard map given at the park entrance. It's as helpful as any guidebook. And made of a very durable and waterproof material.

I just returned from Yellowstone and the Tetons. I used this book throughout my trip. It is clear, easy to use and well-written. The left hand page is a map of a short distance, say 14 miles, the right hand tells you about the sights. I used it in conjunction with a more detailed book (Moon guide), and found both useful in tandem. The only drawback is that it assumes you are entering the park from the West Entrance, so I had to use stick on notes to guide myself backwards by numbering the stick-ons in the order of my route. It was no big deal and hardly a reason not to buy the book. Two thirds of the annual 3 million visitors enter via the west, so you can understand the authors' reasons.
