A Woman's Guide to the Wild | Your Complete Outdoor Handbook

For any woman who wants to get outside and play, here is the definitive guide to being a woman in the great outdoors.

This outdoor guide covers the matters of most concern to women, from "feminine functions" in the wilderness to how to deal with condescending rangers and arrogant fellow travelers, as well as the basics of wilderness survival tailored to women's unique needs, including gear lists, setting up camp, building a fire, food and water, safety, weather, and navigation, written by an Oregon geologist and Outdoor School instructor (and avid outdoorswoman). Covers the basics for traditional outdoor recreational activities like hiking, camping, and backpacking, as well as other outdoor sports such as kayaking, snowshoeing, and cycling.
