Really love the Maui guide, so I bought the Rocky Mountain National Park guide, however, I found it a bit sparse on information and not very engaging.

We used the Rocky Mountain National Park version and saw so much of the park as a result. Directions were spot on, helpful, and informative. Stories fill in on some longer times between spots. If I had to make a suggestion, allow the user to listen to their own music during downtime.

Great tool to have when visiting for the first time. Wonderful narration of history of park as you drive through. Was perfect for picking the best stops to see wildlife and best views.
