An experienced outdoors writer, naturalist, and family camper,
Christina M. Selby offers families an in-depth guide to
experiencing the natural splendors of New Mexico in New Mexico
Family Outdoor Adventure. With more than eighty destinations
throughout the state, the Land of Enchantment offers abundant
opportunities for exploration with hiking, biking, camping, skiing,
wildlife watching, fishing, climbing, outdoor cultural activities,
and more. Parents, grandparents, children, tweens, and teenagers
will enjoy the activities and locations that Selby has enjoyed with
her family and features throughout the book. Organized
geographically, with easy-to-use maps, the guide explores every
corner of the state with detailed descriptions and beautiful
photography of trails, campsites, rivers, and lakes. At each
location, every outdoor activity is graded in terms of difficulty
and age-appropriateness, so you'll know exactly the right
activities for every member of your family. Whether you're planning
your first family adventure or are an experienced outdoors family,
pick a destination and get outside. What are you waiting for?
Forget hurrying. Forget putting your foot down and racing through
sweeping bends. Forget the understeer (whatever that is). Forget
the blur of a life lived too fast. This is a look at taking life
slowly. It's about taking the time to enjoy journeys and places for
their own sake. It's about stopping and putting the kettle on.
Stopping to take a picture. Stopping to enjoy stopping. How are you
going to do it? In a camper van or a motorhome, of course. In this
book we define the best driving routes around Scotland for camper
vans and motorhomes. We show you the coolest places to stay, what
to see, what to do and explain why it's special. We meander around
the highlands, lowlands and islands of Scotland on the most
breathtaking roads, chugging up mountain passes and pootling along
the coast. We show you stuff that's fun, often free. We include the
best drives for different kinds of drivers; for surfers, wildlife
watchers, climbers and walkers. We include the steepest, the
bendiest, those with the most interesting bridges or views or
obstacles, ferries and tidal causeways. And you don't even have to
own a camper van or motorhome - we'll tell you the many places you
can rent one to take you on the journey. All of this is
interspersed with beautiful photos, handy maps and quirky travel
writing from the king of camper vans and motorhomes, Martin Dorey.
So if all you want to do is flick through it on a cold day and plan
your next outing, you'll be transported (albeit slowly) to
pastures, beaches, mountains and highways that make you want to
turn the key and go, go, go! We'll take you to see Scotland the
slow way. The way it should be seen.
