She guides the reader to explore new destinations within the mountain park. Some of, but not all of the topics discussed pertain to the following, climate, seasons, fishing, backpacking trips and more. The guide is comprehensive and offers specific details that would likely to have been very relevant for new travelers in the area.

The reports were comprehensive in nature and covered but were not exclusive to, topics relating to the following fields of study; anthropology, zoology, entomology, ornithology, botany, paleontology and archaeology. In addition, the reports included a segment on visitors, staff changes, activities and new accessions that had taken place over the last year.
