This accessible guide provides a reference for anyone wishing to explore the back country. It deals with planning an adventure in remote territory, from budgeting and insurance to medical preparations and physical fitness. It explains how to use a map and compass accurately, and covers many different ways to explore the great outdoors - walking, cycling, kayaking and canoeing, and animal, vehicle and public transport.
