The Hot Springs Trail Official Guidebook The Hot Springs Trail is an original 2,390.9 mile long-distance backpacking route that takes you to sacred places with healing waters. This incredible thru-hiker's journey begins on the Pacific Ocean in the paradise town of Santa Barbara, CA and visits more than 80 wild and resort Hot Spring areas before reaching Canada. Featured along the way are many glacial lakes, historic towns, and remote summits, plus a diversity of wildlife, geology, and ecosystems. It is my hope that one day this book will be used as a template for an official Hot Springs National Scenic Trail.

This Official Guidebook provides you with a full set of detailed and updated maps plus complete logistics for the entire trail. It addresses safety concerns, offers first-hand advice and tips, gives resupply options, highlights both hot and cold spring water sources, and includes current websites for further planning.

Taylor brings an ethnographer’s eye, ear, and many years of experience to this fictional portrait of life along the US/Mexico desert border. In these linked short stories, readers are taken on a wild ride from San Diego to Nogales, into Mexican and Chicano neighborhoods, failed spas and defunct mining towns, rambling Native American reservations and besieged Wildlife Refuges. Along the way they will share the conflicts, calamities, and occasional triumph of an engaging cast of characters. While these tales treat such familiar border themes as drug- and people-smuggling or hybrid and conflicting cultures and identities, they do so with a literary flair that revels in the rich diversity of border life as well as in its ambiguity, ambivalence, irony and often unexpected humor.
