Gray covers with black texturing held together with two staples on the left side. The back cover has a 4-line poem by Emerson in the center, with a black border all the way around the cover's edge. There is some brown staining on the back cover, along with a few white spots in the upper right corner. There are many handwritten notes inside the front cover, and a few inside the back cover; all in pencil cursive. There are also pencil notes added beside some of the hikes in the schedule.
