When I wanted to take up backpacking I didn't know anyone else who did the sport that I could go to for advice or teachings. This book has the info you need to get started and give you confidence to get out there and try backpacking, which has become one of my favorite pastimes!

I bought this for my husband, who has recently taken up hiking. He loves it and in fact reads it at bedtime every night. Says it is the best book he has seen for beginners. And, not a bad price either!
