The cover is gray vinyl with tan nylon trim, zipper, and printing. Our format has a purpose. The zippered vinyl cover protects books while banging around in backpacks, trunks, panniers, or whatever. Pages may be removed and inserted in a supplied plastic sleeve for carrying on a hike and to protect the page from dirt and moisture. The three-ring binding also allows for additions and upgrades. Can be personalized with foil stamping on cover for an additional $4.95. Most of our books are printed from rice paper plates on recycled paper using a water base environmentally friendly ink. Other than the covers all work is done at our Hailey location, much of it performed by hand, often by the same people who hike and write our books. -- From the Publisher
