Reviews"Breath of fresh air" "I learned most of this backpacker voodoo the hard way, wasting hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on the wrong gear for the conditions I had to hike in. Instead, Andrew distills the knowledge you need in a very readable book that is chock full of war stories, gear recommendations, and sample gear lists." - sectionhiker.com http://sectionhiker.com/the-ultimate-hikers-gear-guide-2nd-ed-by-andrew-skurka/ "So does Skurka pass the Comparative Standard test? Yes, and with flying colors...The book is well laid out, presents a ton of solid and useful information, is easy to read and understand." -Popular Backpacker http://popupbackpacker.com/book-review-the-ultimate-hikers-gear-guide-2nd-edition/
