She has written about hiking trails, historic lodges and roads, camping, paddling, skiing, bicycling, wildlife, wildflowers, birds, and climate change. For magazine stories, she has tagged along with biologists into the field to radio collar bighorn sheep and grizzly bears, even touching the bear's claws and smelling its fur to discover its earthy scent.She has published stories in several national travel magazines including Smithsonian and Backpacker.

Sometimes you get a book and think, Where has this been all my life? On a recent snowy afternoon that practically required some summer dreaming and scheming, that book for me was Moon USA National Parks. --Kristen Inbody, Great Falls Tribune The definitive new guide, Moon USA National Parks by long-time National Park advocate and former guide Becky Lomax, comes highly recommended...The guide is organized well and very reader-friendly. No matter what type of adventure you are seeking, the guide is sure to have something for you. Whether you are seeking safe encounters with wildlife, peaceful solitude, winter activities or all those can't miss locations for the perfect selfie opportunity, the guide has it. --Camping for Women An entertaining guide, whether you're planning an actual trip or just want to do a little exploring from the comfort of your favorite reading chair. [Author Becky Lomax] highlights each park with hiking suggestions, tips on what to see, logistical information and more. --Washington Trails Association As far as national park travel guides go, none are as comprehensive as this one.

The stunning images will excite the adventurer in you, and the useful tips, along with the 'must do' activities and attractions, are a perfect beginning point to work from as you plan your National Park travels. --Camping Tips for Everyone It's in author Becky Lomax's DNA to have written such a comprehensive book about our country's national parks. In 1902, her great-grandparents visited Yellowstone on their honeymoon (riding a carriage!) and her father was a National Park Ranger in Washington state. Consequently, Lomax grew up exploring and becoming an expert in her natural backyard habitat. As a nationally published magazine writer, Lomax has gone one step further in compiling this comprehensive guidebook for adventurers and armchair readers alike...Each park is detailed in great depth including visitors' centers, best places to take photos, history of the park, wildlife species, activities, camping, full-color maps and really, too much to outline here. Let's just say Lomax deserves my vote for an Outdoors Pulitzer for this comprehensive guidebook on our national parks. --Carolyn Price, OutdoorsNW
