Camping or backpacking in winter is appealing for many who enjoy
the serenity of wilderness settings without the crowds and bustle
of the summer season. But as rewarding as they can be, these
outings require special preparation and a different set of skills
than are necessary at other times of the year. Snowfall can quickly
cover one's tracks and make orientation difficult. Hypothermia is
insidious, and rapidly changing weather conditions can become
treacherous, even life-threatening.In addition to those who are
exploring the outdoors recreationally, there are also those who
find themselves in unexpected winter survival situations. Each
year, people become stranded in wilderness areas, and in most cases
they are not equipped to face the challenge of spending an
indefinite amount of time outside. Without sufficient gear or
knowledge of how to improvise without it, injury or death is often
the result. The development of some basic skills, however, can help
avert such unfortunate outcomes.As the founder of the renowned
nature awareness program Primitive Pursuits, Dave Hall has been
practicing survival skills for more than twenty years and has
amassed a comprehensive understanding of winter survival. By
refining these skills, Dave has reached a point of understanding
that is without peer. Through detailed explanations, illustrations,
and personal anecdotes, Winter in the Wilderness imparts Dave's
knowledge to readers, who will learn to meet their most basic
needs: making fire, creating shelter, obtaining safe drinking
water, navigating terrain, and procuring sustenance.Winter in the
Wilderness is a handbook for those who want to explore cold-weather
camping and those who might find themselves in need of this
critical information during an unexpected winter's night out.
Whether used for pleasure or for survival, Winter in the Wilderness
emphasizes the benefits of enriching and deepening our connection
with the outdoors.
Whether you're a creationist or an evolutionist, there are colossal
spaces and unanswered questions in the multitude of past and
present theories. Not only are we foggy about how we got here - -
we don't know where we're going and how we're going to get there.

Amy Brown Lyman was a leader once admired for her dynamic
personality, her inspiring public addresses, and for her remarkable
vision of what Mormon women in the Relief Society could achieve.
Yet today her name is barely known. This volume introduces her to a
new generation, showing how the accomplishments of Lyman and her
peers benefitted subsequent generations. Dave Hall examines the
roots and trajectory of Mormon women's activism. Lyman entered
public life at a time when the practice of polygamy was ending and
Mormonism was assimilating mainstream trends. The book recounts her
involvement in the Relief Society, the Mormon women's charity group
that she led for many years and sought to transform into a force
for social welfare. Lyman's later life, after she resigned from the
Relief Society amidst personal tragedy, offers insight into the
reasons Mormon women abandoned an activist heritage for a more
conservative role, that is again evolving.
