Ultralight Backpacking Secrets (And Wilderness Survival Tips)

Ultralight Backpacking On Mount Shavano

Imagine hiking in the mountains - and you hardly feel the pack on your back. Would you like that? You can sling the pack from one shoulder as you hike, just to let your back cool off. You can run up that hill, just to see what is there. You have everything you need to be safe and comfortable, and it all weighs less than 20 pounds. Wouldn't that be more fun than struggling with a fifty-pound load on your back?

That's how the page reads where I sell this book. Here's the short version of the rest of the page:

Learn how to go as light as ten pounds for a weekend... Which 7-ounce raincoat I took to 20,600 feet... How to make a one-ounce backpacking stove... How to buy cheap, high quality gear... How to breath to hike more efficiently... How to stop getting blisters... The four basic ways to purify water... A trick for maintaining your compass heading... Three season sleeping bags that weigh around a pound... A 4-ounce bivy sack you can make!.. Basic backpacking clothes you can make in minutes... Make your own 4-ounce sleeping bag pads... Fire starting tricks... Lies the "experts" tell you... What foods to eat for warmth... Which way your tent should face... A plant that can stop your headache... Plants you can use as insect repellent... How to have a cold drink in the desert... A plant that can disinfect cuts and scrapes... A plant you can use to make warm mittens fast... Why it matters when you try on new hiking shoes... A quick snow shelter you can make without tools... The basic wild berries anyone can identify and eat... How to be warmer, even with a lighter sleeping bag - or no bag at all... How I made a full-suspension exterior-frame backpack that weighed just two pounds... How to tell the difference between a bear that is stalking you versus a "bluff attack.".. How to find packs that weigh less than a pound and will carry everything you need for a weekend.
