      The book is written well and is easy to read. The information is basic and common sense; aimed at true beginners for backpacking or being in the outdoors. Not as helpful to anyone with a bit of experience.

    Backpacking Light 101 - Stanley Reese

    Introduction

    When it comes to camping and hiking many of us really don’t know what we are doing. We are mainly focused on the fun and excitement of going out into the woods and becoming one with nature.
