Best $16 you'll ever spend.

Agreed, the only problem is when you loan it out to friends you never quite get it back.
Any book I loan out I make folks leave me a deposit or something that they love. Preferably an inanimate object.Originally Posted by Strauberry
Really....otherwise you will never see the book again.

yeppers...... a worthy guide and it's been well used. I have a spot in my pack for it in case I need some wisdom.

“I am losing precious days. I am degenerating into a machine for making money. I am learning nothing in this trivial world of men. I must break away and get out into the mountains to learn the news”
― John Muir
I keep my original paper copy for loaning but always have a digital copy downloaded to my kindle or kindle app on my phone. The best of both worlds. Even after years of "hanging" always fun to brush up on a few topics or just read for nostalgia.
Once you're lost in twilight's blue, you don't find your way, the way finds you.
My son took my copy with him on his Boy Scout high adventure trip a couple of weeks ago. Since they were doing 4 days of canoeing (among other things), I made him pack it in a Ziplock bag. Fortunately it survived with only minor wear and tear. He tells me that it was read by most of the other boys and leaders!
That's a great idea. Gotta try it.
I gave a copy of this excellent book to a friend for a birthday present. Shug is right; it's an excellent resource. (Takes one to know one, hence Shug's recommendation...)
How can you get a digital copy? When I click on the link (https://www.createspace.com/3617299) I only see paper...
Do a search for it on amazon, apple ibooks, nook and there might be another format or two out there....just search with your preferred digital book system.
