Packing and Portaging
Dillon Wallace
Everything you need to carry a wilderness canoe trip on your own back. Wallace lays out the canoe and its equipment, the camp kit, personal gear, and the food that keeps a paddler going, then teaches the art of the portage and travel with saddle and pack animals. Practical, tested woodcraft from a seasoned northern traveler. Pack light, paddle far, and cross the carry like a pro.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
