www.HikerWriter.comNOW IN STOCK! Order Now! More Everyday Wisdom: Trail-Tested Advice from the Experts by Karen Berger Published by the Mountaineers Books in cooperation with Backpacker Magazine. Answers to questions hikers really ask Have you ever wondered: * What should you do if a bear attacks you -- or a grouse (yes, a grouse!)? * Where can you see the Northern Lights? * What are suncups and how do you walk in them? * Do you really need gear that was tested on Mt. Everest? * How much should your pack weigh? -- and how on earth do you get rid of enough stuff to make it light enough to carry? Have you ever noticed that most backpacking books don't answer these questions? That's because they have to spend all their time on trail basics. I know, because I write how-to books, and have been frustrated that word limits don't leave me enough room to answer the questions hikers really ask. This book assumes you got a little bit of trail mileage -- and a lot of questions. Based on hundreds of questions hikers have asked in lectures, on the trail, and via letters and the Internet, Karen Berger's newest book covers a cornucopia of questions hikers really ask. |
