Languages : en
Pages : 238
Book Description
Mud, Mountains, and Sweat is a book that I hope gives you a journey into the great outdoors. This book is my unofficial guide and tribute to the joy I believe outdoor adventure can bring each and every one of us. It includes 52 outdoor adventures that might burst your capillaries, watering holes that might make you sleep in a bit too much the next day, and range in location from Japan to Maine to Costa Rica up to Alaska and everywhere in between. I hope you'll laugh, learn about the outdoors, plan a trip, and find ideas for new outdoor adventures or make you yearn to revisit an old one. It is a collection of firsthand stories of fifty-two of my most unique adventures and experiences in the outdoors. I've included fifty-two in the hopes you can convince yourself to experience one outdoor adventure per week moving forward. I arranged them in a recommended sequence of the best time of year to visit and experience them. Each story centers around one of our five senses to help bring the adventures alive for you in the short riffs I share. Come along with me to the places I (and the friends I convinced or bribed to come with me) have been, hear the stories as they really happened, and be equipped with your own "quest" to start by the time you are done with this book!

The Hiking Trails of Florida's National Forests, Parks, and Preserves
Author: Johnny Molloy
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780813030623
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
For Florida hikers, vacationers, outdoor enthusiasts, and wildlife watchers who want to plan and execute their own adventures, this second edition of the popular guidebook will be indispensable. Molloy and Friend explore the trails of Florida to provide readers with an easy-to-use, accurate, and thorough guide to hiking in more than 2 million acres of federally owned wilderness. These areas contain some of the Sunshine State's most spectacular scenery--from pristine beaches and emerald oceans to towering pine forests and sparkling spring-fed lakes. Illustrated with photographs by the authors, this guide describes every marked and maintained trail in Florida's national forests, parks, and preserves. Each description contains a profile of the path, detailing and rating its condition, length, and difficulty and describing the highlights and hazards of the trail. Profiles also give trailhead directions, trail connections, and hiking season information, followed by a running narrative describing what hikers can expect to see and experience on the trails. This updated edition covers large and small changes in the trails since 2000, most notably the new western corridor of the Florida Trail through Ocala National Forest and the storm-driven changes to the same trail at Gulf Island National Seashore and in Everglades National Park. Also included is a new section on Canaveral National Seashore. The book also features vignettes of natural and human history along the trails. Many of the areas border sinkholes and other geologic formations, wind through fascinating ecosystems such as the Everglades, and pass by historic sites such as old roadways, mail routes, battlefields, and military forts, and Molloy and Friend highlight these throughout the book in fascinating anecdotes. They also provide information on what to wear and bring on hiking expeditions to maximize safety and comfort along the great hiking trails of Florida's protected lands.
