Publisher Comments:

Bobbi Hoadley offers this fun guide for women who want to be wild--but don't want to suffer through their time in the wilderness. Hoadley introduces the concepts of wilderness or backcountry adventure for the novice and experienced camper alike. Her tips on personal hygiene, traveling light, and enjoying the journey are designed with women in mind--but these are tips that men can take to heart, as well. Comical black-and-white illustrations and lists and charts illustrate the excellent advice Hoadley offers to those wanting to experience the backcountry in comfort. From tips on packing and physical fitness to ways to entertain the group once they are in the wild, this book is packed with great advice from a woman who knows camping and wants to help women embrace being "Babes in the Woods." Gourmet "on-the-trail" recipes are also included.
