Customer Reviews

Excellent for beginners. Not the best choice for others.

I read this book before going to my first excursion and it was very useful. If you are a beginner, want to go to a light trip and know nothing about backpacking, setting a tent, cooking in the middle of the countryside, etc, this book is an excellent choice. If you are experienced, I guess that this book will be very basic for you.

Excellent source of information. A survival kit in print.

This book played an essential role in my team's confidence to hike up and down Pikes Peak.

Pack this into your day bag!

Great book packed with color pictures and loaded with information about a myriad of things! I am highly impressed!
