A book for both new and experienced explorers, Wilderness Canoe Tripping will help you make the most of any canoeing adventure. Beginning with the basics gear and food lists, tips on packing and choosing your team the book then turns to the nitty-gritty of a canoe trip, in all its mathematical glory. Written by an engineering professor, this book explains the quantitative nature of a wilderness trip, from weather patterns and water currents to calorie intake and canoe specs. And for the non-numerically-oriented, all the information is illustrated and accessibly summarized as well.

A canoe helps you reach otherwise inaccessible places. And when you find yourself miles from civilization, among your buddies, canoe, and tent, life feels softer, more precious. Author Bill Hosford s own watercolors illustrate this handy guide. Bring this book to steer the way on your canoeing forays, and experience the wilderness few people ever see.
