4.0 out of 5 stars Must-have book for rafting down the Colorado, September 8, 1999

By A Customer

I just took the 1969 edition of this very handy book with me on an 8-day motorized trip down the canyon. Another rafter had this 1991 version, which is even better. I was able to tell where we were at all times -- to know what rapids were ahead, to know how far we'd traveled that day, and to know the names of the side canyons as they passed, among other things. The book's explanation of the Canyon's geology is the most understandable I have seen. Best of all, the book is waterproof, so it was completely accessible throughout the trip.

4.0 out of 5 stars An indispensible guide for river runners!, July 27, 1998

By	Mark McClain (Irving, TX USA) - See all my reviews

This guide has detailed, mile by mile account of the most popular river runs of the Canyonland region. It is an excellent map with notations and topographic contour lines. Locations of the major features of the river, rapids, archaeological sites, etc. are shown. Must have if you are planning to float these rivers.

4.0 out of 5 stars The book to have on your foredeck, June 7, 2007

By	Vadim Kin (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Belknap's Waterproof Canyonlands River Guide-All New Color Edition (Paperback)

This is what you want under the bungies as you paddle down the flat water portions of the Green or the Colorado. I am not a white water guy, but seems like I would want rapid diagrams if I were to do the Westwater or the Cataract, and this book provides none.
