Bill Tweed
Those who love the High Sierra have long known that the wilderness trail system of Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks is one of the parks’ best features. But how did these nearly eight hundred miles of trails come to exist? After years of research, we now have an answer. Granite Pathways leads the reader through a century and a half of wilderness exploration and trail building in the southern Sierra. From routes worked out centuries ago by Native Americans and grizzly bears to the advent of the Pacific Crest Trail, it’s all here. Author William Tweed worked for the NPS at Sequoia and Kings Canyon for more than thirty years and has walked every trail in the two parks. If you ‘re a fan of the High Sierra, this is a book you won’t want to miss. Paperback. 6" x 9". 205 pages.
