Te Happy Camper: An Essential Guide
to Life Outdoors KEVIN CALLAN
If you’ve read any of canoeist Kevin Callan’s guidebooks, you’ll know that he seems to be constantly followed by a dark cloud of miserable weather, raven- ous bugs and problem bears. In this book, happy-go-lucky Cal-
lan draws on his extensive experience with Murphy’s Law to provide tips for up-and-coming canoe campers. For instance, did you know that the best campsites are found between three and four p.m., proper GORP-eating etiquette requires you not look into the bag as you grab your handful and that duct tape, tree branches and a fleece sweater can splint a broken bone?
