What They're Saying
Critics Review
“Breath of fresh air” “I learned most of this backpacker voodoo the hard way, wasting hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on the wrong gear for the conditions I had to hike in. Instead, Andrew distills the knowledge you need in a very readable book that is chock full of war stories, gear recommendations, and sample gear lists.” – sectionhiker.com
“So does Skurka pass the Comparative Standard test? Yes, and with flying colors…The book is well laid out, presents a ton of solid and useful information, is easy to read and understand.” –Popular Backpacker
