Lightweight Backpacking and Camping
Edited by: Ryan Jordan

This book is essential for anyone getting into Lightweight Backpacking and Camping. It doesn’t necessarily give you specifics or tell you exactly what to get, even better it shows you how to choose the right gear for the right person for the right conditions. There is a fantastic section on almost category of gear from sleeping systems to footwear. First aid, hiking with kids and one of my favorite sections efficient hiking. In that section in goes through a day of a hike and records every action, which includes about 20 steps just to get to your water bottle…

Great book…Fantastic reference.

Cascade Gear Rating: ★★★★½
