Download Backpacking: The Ultimate Guide to Getting Started on Your First Backpacking Trip AudioBook Free
Thinking about experiencing the outside but overwhelmed by everything you need to learn to backpack securely? Have you got a sudden itch to go out in to the wilderness, wake up next to a babbling brook someplace and watch sunlight slowly but surely come over the horizon?

Backpacking allows us to experience nature in a manner that simply isn't achievable through other means. The trouble for many folks, however, is getting started.
