An important note about pricing. In 2024, Waterford Press began implementing the first price increase since 2016. This change will affect only folding pocket guides priced at $7.95 at this time. The new retail price, at $8.95, is on par with other guides in this format. Many titles have already been printed and are in circulation with the new price. All other $7.95 titles will see the price change as they are reprinted over the next 12-18 months.
Backpacking is an exercise of endurance and meticulous planning. Every last ounce of weight must be accounted for to ensure that you’re not carrying an oversized load. This detailed portable reference will help prepare you for your next outdoor adventure. It includes important information on selecting the appropriate gear for all types of weather, camping and camp craft, navigation, dangerous animals and plants, safe travel strategies, hiking etiquette (leave no trace), wilderness first aid, and instructions for what to do if you are lost. The reusable packing checklist is a handy tool you'll use over and over. Laminated for durability, this waterproof, 12-panel folding pocket guide is a lightweight companion for educators, learners, backpackers, hikers, and expeditioners of all skill and experience levels. Made in the USA.
