In the days before cell phones and global positioning systems,
knowing how to find your own way in the wilderness was a necessary
skill. The Wilderness Route Finder, first published in 1967, was
the popular resource for anyone traveling into the woods who wanted
to be able to find their way out again. Now this essential book is
available again in a handy paperback edition.
As more and more people seek to simplify their wilderness
experiences and return to traditional camping methods, Rutstrum's
simple, straightforward, and dependable methods can be appreciated
anew. Rutstrum focuses on the tried-and-true techniques that have
served wilderness travelers for generations: how to use a map, a
compass, a sextant, and the sun and stars. He explains why we
sometimes get lost and what to do when it happens.
This is a valuable traveling companion for anyone wishing to
hunt, fish, explore, camp out, or simply walk through unfamiliar
territory.
