This book is not intended to take the place of a sport-specific text on
backpacking, canoeing, family camping, or the like. Rather, it details hundreds of
ideas and procedures that are never found in traditional camping texts—ideas that
will make your next campout safer and more enjoyable. Main topics have been
alphabetized, everything is indexed for your convenience, and space-consuming
anecdotes have been eliminated to make room for the obscure but important things
you really need to know.
What’s New in the Fifth Edition?In a word, plenty! What was intended as a light revision morphed into a substantial
rewrite with dozens of new color photos. Why so many revisions when the basic
tenets of camping haven’t changed in years? The answer is that if you take camping
as seriously as I do, you are always on the prowl for better ways and better stuff.
For more than 30 years, I outfitted and guided canoe trips on remote rivers in
northern Canada, where having one’s act together is a tenet of survival and a
prerequisite to having a good time. Each new adventure tested old methods and
encouraged me to think outside the box. When I discovered a better way, I adopted
it immediately and threw past practice to the wind.
Finally, those of you who have read earlier editions of this book have surely
noticed that some of my recommendations have changed. Good! That’s the price
one pays for continued learning.
