5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Guide of It's Kind, February 12, 2003

By	Jim Allen "Jim Allen" (NW Ohio) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Guide To Moab, UT Backroads & 4-Wheel Drive Trails (Paperback)

If you're a four-wheeler, the recent explosion of trail guides has got to be making you happy. They offer concise information on some of the best `wheeling around the country and usually from a useful perspective. Among the writers of those guides, Charles Well's books stand out in the crowd. His Moab guide was the first and one I had the pleasure of reviewing a number of years ago for a magazine. Ever the skeptic, I put this book though it's paces in an area I know well and, dagnabit, I couldn't find a single error! Not only that, I found the book easy to use, well organized and priced right. Wells put everything you need in there, but didn't load it down with glitz to make it cost more. My copy is definitely folded, spindled and mutilated, as well as oil stained. I won't `wheel Moab without it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Let Charles A. Wells be your guide!, August 7, 2004

By	G. Volz (Northern New Jersey) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Guide To Moab, UT Backroads & 4-Wheel Drive Trails (Paperback)

We just did a 3 week loop through Arizona, Utah, and Colorado and used Charles A. Wells books for each of those states for planning and navigation. We were extremely happy with these books as guides as we would have had no idea of were to go wheeling with out them.
Very well written and detailed trail descriptions. The maps and overall layout of the books were very friendly and easy to use especially while on the trail. We tried to hit as many of the authors favorite trails as we could and were not disapointed! We also noticed that the volumes were recognized and apparently respected by local tour guides that we met along the trails - a good sign. Some of the volumes included GPS coordinates which were a helpful reference. A mapping GPS makes a good companion to all of these books as you can match your GPS generated progress to any of the books fine maps.

The only down side as another reviewer pointed out, is that the binding of one or two of the books did give up but only because of its high use/abuse on our 3 week trip - don't let that stop you from buying though. (I'm going to move the pages to a binder)

You will be pleased with your purchase!

Thank you Mr. Wells

5.0 out of 5 stars Get the spiral bound edition, November 18, 2008

By	James Hunt "lonewolfpc" - See all my reviews

Excellent resource for anyone wheeling in Moab! Do yourself a favor, if you buy direct from the author's website, you can pay $5 more to get the spiral bound edition. I wish I had known this!
