Backpacker magazine's Backpacking Basics: Planning, Preparing, and Packing (Backpacker Magazine Series) Reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Backpacker magazine's Backpacking Basics: Planning, Preparing, and Packing (Backpacker Magazine Series) (Paperback) This is a very quick read on Backpacking basics. I would consider this a a good read for someone getting ready for a day hike or a single night. The information is good, however, the same information can be obtained from your local REI store. The free informational sheets near products cover most of what is covered here. Have fun outside! By This review is from: Backpacker magazine's Backpacking Basics: Planning, Preparing, and Packing (Backpacker Magazine Series) (Paperback) This is a good basics guide for the novice backpacker just intering the field who dosn't have an experienced buddy to show him/her the ropes or give advice. It dosn't go into great detail on any particular subject but explains the basic gear, how to wear it, how to pack it and when to pack it for common situations. If anything, it would provide a beginner with the language needed to explore and research more detailed information as well as have an enjoyable experience on his initial adventures. 0 of 1 people found the following review helpful By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: Backpacker magazine's Backpacking Basics: Planning, Preparing, and Packing (Backpacker Magazine Series) (Kindle Edition) Probably okay for a first time user, but far too basic for most anyone else. I was looking for something with more meat on the bones. Readability on my iPad was okay, but the pictures were not especially useful. |
