Walking the Walk...You Do Best With A Map

 Pete McBride’s The Grand Canyon: Between River and Rim is a book of 1-2 page spreads and many intimate close-ups, 236 pages celebrating Canyon views photographed during whats called a “Grand Canyon traverse”, that is, a combination of hikes/backpacks where the protagonists start at the junction with the Paria River and walk the length of the Canyon, coming out at Lake Mead. (The Canyon and its National Park differ in their, in the first instance, topographic boundary, and in the second, politically constituted line.)
