The Backpacker's Handbook - 2nd Edition

By Chris Townsend

The First Edition of The Backpacker's Handbook was a success due to its enormous practicality for backpackers of all skill levels, with everything from essential techniques for every backpacking trip - such as map and compass work, to the skills needed for more remote wilderness journeys - such as how to ford rivers safely and how to choose a route in untracked terrain. To this, in the Second Edition, add such topics as hiking deserts, ultralight backpacking, and adventure trekking in distant corners of the globe. Measures 9-1/4" x 7-1/2" with 340 pages.

The Complete Walker - IV Edition

By Colin Fletcher & Chip Rawlins

For the first time since 1984, we have a new edition of the classic book that Field & Stream called "the Hiker's Bible." The eighteen years since the publication of the Third Edition we have seen revolutionary changes in hiking and camping equipment; developments in waterproofing technology, smaller and more durable stoves, lighter boots, more manageable tents, and a wider array of food options. The equipment recommendations are therefore not merely revised and tweaked, but completely revamped. The equipment searches are exhaustive. Measures 9-1/4" x 6-1/8" with 864 pages.

23605 - The Complete Walker IV - $22.00
