Canoe and Kayak Camping: Planning and Enjoying Wilderness Water Trips

For 50 years, James Jones has paddled rivers, swamps and ocean shores. He traveled the Everglades, the Rio Grande, Fond du Lac, Moisie River, Nahanni, Natogami, Kapuskasing, Nemengosenda, Moose, Liard, Pipestone, and others. In his engaging book, “Canoe and Kayak Camping”, he shares hard-won, in-depth knowledge. Read about night skies filled with stars, the rhythm of water lapping at the shore, sleeping under the stars, gliding across a glass-smooth lake, lynx, caribou, wolves, deer, and incredible vistas. Feel the total isolation, and infinite possibilities, when the float plane leaves you alone on a remote river. Enjoy the simple and delicious outdoor recipes. Understand how to survive thunderstorms, troublesome bears, incessant mosquitoes, waterfalls, rapids, canoe flips, hypothermia and near disasters. Learn to plan a trip, pick companions, camp, canoe, kayak, cook, hunt, fish and navigate. And, just when you think the book is finished, there is an unexpected and remarkable bibliography of 400 outdoor books. Extensive checklists guide you through all aspects of a wilderness trip. “Canoe and Kayak Camping” is a complete guide for journeys into the wild!
