Winter camping has its own special allure: the splendid quiet of a winter forest, the hush of falling snow, the thrill of gliding over ice and snow on skis. From building a snow shelter to starting a stove in subzero temperatures, former Maine Guide Stephen Gorman shares his tips for adventure in the winter months. Used in outdoors-education classes from Maine to Minnesota, this edition is newly updated, with more information on backcountry skiing and ski mountaineering. Topics include gear selection, travel tips for skiing, hiking, and snowshoeing, winter safety, weather and health, injury prevention, hypothermia, winter rescue, making camp and much more. 200 pages.
