Planning to bring the family out to Prescott in late July for a week or two. The kids and I will have time to kill while mom is taking classes in Prescott. 2 boys (15 & 12) love to boulder and daughter (11) loves to read in a hammock or swim (and occaisionally climbs).

I'm more into TR, sport, and just beginning to lead easy trad routes.

Is there a guidebook that lays out the options around Prescott?

Thanks in advance,

Hey Stuart,
I'd say your best bet would be at the Dells..
There are also some places in Oak Creek Canyon that you might like such as the Doctor's Office
or even the Overlook.
Wherever you go though, make sure you watch out for the afternoon monsoon storms.

Have fun!

And to answer your question: the Falcon guidebook is a good guide that has a little of everything.
