Wintering: The outdoor book for cold weather ventures - Softcover
Add more months of rewarding outdoor activities by learning the art and skills of wintering. Ross Mohney, a wilderness adventurer, sets forth the knowledge, skills and lore acquired from years of practical experience during winter outings for snowshoers, cross-country skiers, backpackers, campers and those who just walk through the harshly beautiful winter lands. Learn to live with winter by utilizing the information and facts on: clothing; foods, including vital nutritional data, menus and meal preparation; fires for warmth as well as cooking; navigating snow-covered lands; setting up a winter campsite; special gear needed; special techniques for safely negotiating varying, often hazardous, terrain on skis and snowshoes; and avoiding winter's unique hazards - avalanche, frostbite, hypothermia, snowblindness and others. All the facts are here for capturing rich, rewarding winter wilderness experiences in safety and comfort, whether in the frosty, snow-covered North or in the chilly, wet South.
