Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tips and Tricks for Life on the Trail! This reprint edition of the classic Camp and Trail Methods by Elmer Kreps brings to light many of the old-time tricks and traditional ways of the woods that some of the more comprehensive instruction manuals leave out. Originally published in 1910, this book includes less-common, but enjoyable activities of the wilds.Activities discussed within include: backwoods travel, snowshoeing and snowshoe making, toboggan and sled making, trapping, fur preparation and buckskin tanning, skiing, clothing for the outdoors, and bushcraft. This text was a popular volume originally published by the A. R. Harding Company at the turn of the 20th Century. The Harding Company published little manuals for niche outdoors activities instead of the the general camping manuals that were in virtually every collection in the day. If you ever wanted to make your own outdoors gear in the traditional way of the trapper, then this book is for you! Because there were virtually no outfitters in the late 1800's, everything had to be made from scratch, by hand! Let Elmer Kreps show you the way to making some of your own authentic outdoors gear with this handy, richly illustrated little book!

Book excerpt: "One of the most practical works on woodcraft ever written." -Hunter-trader-trapper (1911) "Kreps walked, trapped, and consorted with Indians, learning much along the way, as well as hobnobbing with other expert trappers around the continent." - The Science of Trapping: Old-Time Lessons on Catching Animals for Fur (2016) "Elmer Kreps' Camp and Trail Methods (1910) reveals common chapters on essential wilderness know-how." - The Wilderness Debate Rages on (2008) What information should a true outdoorsman keep on hand for surviving an extended stay in the wilderness when all the conveniences of the modern outdoor "glamping" lifestyle are missing? In 1910, expert outdoorsman Elmer Harry Kreps (1880-1957) answers this question in his famous woodcraft book titled "Camp and Trail Methods." Topics covered by Kreps include: - appropriate wilderness equipment - appropriate clothing - backpacking equipment - outdoor cooking equipment and recipes - best types of firearms, knives, and axes - tents and building shelters - canoes and hunting boats - snowshoeing, skiing, sledding - food provisions to bring - bush travel - tanning hides and furs - preserving game and fish - and many unique outdoorsman tips In introducing his book Kreps writes: "There are many works on woodcraft, written by sportsmen, fishermen, and campers but only a few of these books were written by practical woodsmen and for people who want to belong to that class. Such books are intended for the big game hunter, or the fisherman who goes for a short stay into some easily accessible location, well equipped, and with a guide who does all of the work and looks after the comfort of those whom he has in charge. This book is a decided departure from that class, as it not only gives the information needed by the tourist and summer camper, but gives special attention to the needs of those practical ones whose calling, whatever it may be, leads them into the wilds and holds them there at all times of the year; the hunter, the fisherman, the trapper, the prospector, the surveyor; all these and many others will find much valuable information in this book."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: * Addresses concern about "nature deficit disorder" in children * Offers a fresh, modern approach to hiking and camping with kids * Makes parenting a celebration of the outdoors and a sharing of traditions There's a lot of information out there about introducing school-age kids to the outdoors, but what about babies and toddlers? Author Jennifer Aist bridges that gap and shares her tried and tested advice for active new parents. Babes in the Woods introduces outdoorsy moms and dads to the joy and vigor of taking babies and toddlers into the woods at a very early age. Well-organized chapters offer functional solutions for appropriate gear, clothing, and food, nature games to play, and tips on potty breaks and sleeping outdoors-but most importantly, Aist explores all the reasons why introducing even the youngest of children to wilderness experiences is healthy, rewarding, and fun. Whether planning a short day hike, a car camping trip, a base camp adventure, or a backpacking excursion, Aist covers every season and climate, while confirming that babies are well-suited for the mountains, the water, and the adventures that lie beyond.

Download or read book A Fork in the Trail written by Laurie Ann March and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2011-02 with total page 590 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This cookbook, A Fork in the Trail, will forever change the way you eat on your outdoor adventures, whether backpacking in the wilderness, paddling, or even car camping. Inspired by foods from all over the world and the guiding principle of ''if you wouldn't eat it at home, why eat it in the backcountry,'' Laurie Ann March has created 208 lightweight, mouth-watering recipes to turn an ordinary backcountry trip into a gourmet adventure. Some recipes are cooked and dehydrated before the trip, a process that's surprisingly easy. Preparing dishes such as Lemon Wasabi Hummus is as simple as adding boiling water. Other recipes, like Tropical Couscous and Chai Tea Pancakes, can be prepared in camp in just minutes. Laurie also demystifies backcountry baking; who wouldn't want to end a long day of hiking with comforting Pear Berry Crumble topped with Trail Yogurt? The author an, outdoor chef extraordinaire, has compiled only those recipes that survived ease of preparation and rigorous taste tests (by the author and many of her lucky friends). And of course, all are lightweight. Most recipes are found nowhere else: Garlic Shrimp with Orange and Balsamic Sauce, anyone? You'll also find kid-friendly recipes that they can make themselves In addition to the recipes, A Fork in the Trail covers menu planning, recipe creation, and meal planning for families and larger groups.
