 Okay July 16, 2008
I am a beginner hiker. I bought this book based on the price and recommendations from below. There isn't any information in this book that can't be found on hiking websites. I felt it was a waste of money. It wasn't bad, and if you know NOTHING about camping, it's a good place to start - but there are better resources out there.
 Great Place to Start June 9, 2008

When I wanted to take up backpacking I didn't know anyone else who did the sport that I could go to for advice or teachings. This book has the info you need to get started and give you confidence to get out there and try backpacking, which has become one of my favorite pastimes!

I bought this for my husband, who has recently taken up hiking. He loves it and in fact reads it at bedtime every night. Says it is the best book he has seen for beginners. And, not a bad price either!
