Snowshoeing

For a generation, the Basic Essentials(tm) series has been as much a part of the outdoors experience as backpacks and hiking boots. Information-packed tools for the novice or handy references for the veteran, these volumes distill years of knowledge into affordable and portable books. Whether you're planning a trip or thumbing for facts in the field, Basic Essentials(tm) books tell you what you need to know. Using Basic Essentials Snowshoeing you can discover how to pick the right pair of snowshoes, maneuver easily and effectively, get up after falling down, climb and descend trails, dress in layers and pack for cold-weather picnics and snowshoe with kids.
