Product Description

Yosemite & Eastern Sierra in a Nutshell contains the authors' recommendations for eateries, lodging, camping, and recreation within Yosemite National Park, and in the towns just outside the Park at the western and south gates. It also covers the adjacent region east of the Park. Included are the resort area of Mammoth Lakes and the incredibly beautiful landscape and pioneer towns along Rte. 395 from Bridgeport south to just above Tom's Place. Some favorite features include Best Breakfast Places, Hikes and Bike Rides, Healthy Menu Dining, and "Golden Acorns" which are given to the authors' favorite spots.

The emphasis of this Nutshell guide is on the incredible recreational and camping opportunities in this awesomely beautiful section of the Sierra Mountains.

From the Publisher

In A Nutshell is a series of travel guides that we consider to be an antidote to hypey travel advertising and wordy travel books. You could describe the series as either travel guides written on a map, OR, maps with authors' notations written all over them. Don't buy Nutshell guides because you need a map, however. Get them because you want a good travel guide, succinctly written in plain English, laid out in graphic order.

Recommended are author-tested eateries, lodging, and camping, as well as cultural and recreational opportunities. Colorful notations include contact phone numbers, budget descriptions ($,$$,$$$), "kids", smoking or non, and brief comments.

The end product is a compact package that will save you time and grief, and make it easy for you to design your trip. Use Nutshell guides for advance planning a major vacation, or for a spontaneous weekend jaunt. For more background info and updates, check out our new web site (Jan '97) at www.in-a-nutshell.com.

Yosemite & Eastern Sierra
