Synopsis "The Geezer's Guide to Backpacking (Black & White Edition) (in English)"
Have you always wanted to explore beyond the jungle of RV's, generators, and boom boxes of public campgrounds and experience the vastness and serenity of the wilderness beyond? Are you ready to tone your arms and legs, take in a little vitamin D (sunshine), and trek for a few days with nothing apart from what you carry on your back? The Geezer's Guide to Backpacking is intended for those who wish to leisurely explore the back country without sacrificing many of the comforts found in a tent trailer. After all, backpacking is merely the process of "downsizing" the tent trailer. The Geezer's Guide to Backpacking is professionally edited in plain English offering over 20 color images and a host of descriptions of affordable camping gear. Also included are how-to's for "lightening the load", setting up and maintaining your gear, seasonal clothing suggestions, detailed equipment and provision lists, and everything else you need to know before hitting the trail. Every equipment recommendation, technique, and tip in The Geezer's Guide to Backpacking has been field proven by the author over decades of experience in a diversity of weather conditions and environments, and here are just a few examples of what you won't find in other backpacking guides: -What happens if your GPS unit fails? The Geezer's Guide to Backpacking teaches you how to navigate using a topographic map and compass by setting a compass heading to your destination. -What is the difference between box stitching versus straight-through stitching in sleeping bags and coats? This can be the make-or-break for any outing. -What tent is right for you? Do you even need a tent? Are you willing to consider other options? The Geezer's Guide to Backpacking offers alternatives to the traditional tent configuration. -Besides risking falling tree branches, what are the other reasons why you don't want to pitch your tent or shelter directly under a tree? -Learn three simple knots, all easy to tie, easy to untie, and will take care of any situation requiring the use of cordage. The Geezer's Guide to Backpacking also provides an excellent platform for those who wish to assemble a "Bug Out" bag. Properly equipped and provisioned backpacks for each member of the family can do "double duty" as a bug out bag. Maintaining a backpack is easy and relatively inexpensive whether you are exploring the wilderness for fun and adventure or simply storing - just in case.
