Overview: So say the backcountry experts at Backpacking Light Magazine in their new book, Lightweight Backpacking & Camping: A Field Guide to Wilderness Equipment, Technique, and Style. And they should know: Backpacking Light Magazine is recognized as the outdoor industry’s leading authority in lightweight hiking and backcountry travel, and has helped thousands of outdoor enthusiasts discover the joy of going light.
“The notion that you need to carry 40 or 50 pounds of gear into the backcountry to be comfortable and safe is absolutely ridiculous,” says the books Editor, Ryan Jordan, who is also the Publisher of Backpacking Light Magazine and the outdoor industry’s chief proselytizer of today’s exploding lightweight backpacking movement. “Gear manufacturers continue to contaminate the market with too much gear that is overbuilt, overdesigned, overpriced, and overweight. Backpackers deserve to be told the other side of the story: that you can do more with less, and that a pack weight of less than 15 pounds (not including food and water) is easily accessible even to beginners.”
A book about lightweight backpacking should be smart, fat, and heavy.
This new book redefines modern day backpacking as safe, comfortable, and fun but with a much lighter pack. And, it doesn’t take a casual approach to the topic: 436 pages of content educate backcountry users of all levels about the gear and technique required to make them experts.
