Because we had rain, sleet and snow I had to tear this book apart and put the day's pages into a plastic bag to keep them from soaking to mush! This book was our main reference as we hiked the Glyndwr's Way last spring. The descriptions were very helpful. Only two spots we got confused. Only issue ever was that one sentence may be about a section a few feet long where the next sentence may in reality be about a kilometer or so! But comparing the words with the maps helped cover that. I would definitely recommend using the guidebook as you do this trek. The signage is very good but the book tells which way to look!
