by Justin Lichter (Author), Shawn For­ry (Author)

The key to win­ter trav­el is know­ing how to trav­el as light as pos­si­ble. The Ultra­light series is per­fect for both begin­ner and experts alike as Justin Lichter and Shawn For­ry, the first ever win­ter thru-hik­ers of the Pacif­ic Crest Trail, use their knowl­edge to form the most com­pre­hen­sive com­pan­ion for trav­el­ing far­ther with less weight. Ultra­light Win­ter Trav­el focus­es on all of the skills and tech­niques that win­ter adven­tur­ists would want at their fin­ger­tips while in the out­doors. Per­fect for win­ter trav­el­ers from begin­ner to advanced, this book contains: 

• Worst-case-sce­nario advice you’d want handy if stuck in a pre­car­i­ous situation.
• Top­ics like: how to pre­dict weath­er pat­terns, how to keep your pack light with­out sac­ri­fic­ing the essen­tials, how to repair or replace gear with lim­it­ed mate­ri­als, and how to deal with the ele­ments when you don’t have a lot of gear

The book is for­mat­ted to make learn­ing easy and user-friend­ly. Read­ers will be able to adapt their sur­round­ings to the tech­niques shown in the book and safe­ly over­come chal­lenges that which may oth­er­wise have turned them back.
