Nothing
captures our imagination quite like a good book. Whether we're
sitting beside a campfire after a long days paddle, or curled up at home
on a winter day, everyone likes a good tale of adventure from the trail
or water. We've assembled a collection of fiction and non-fiction,
instructional reading and general stories about the places we cherish.
Enjoy!

"Thousands
of tired, nerve-shaken, over-civilized people are
beginning to find out that going to the mountain is
going home; that wildness is necessity; that
mountain parks and reservations are useful not only
as fountains of timber and irrigating rivers, but as
fountains of life".
John Muir
"We abuse land
because we regard it as a commodity belonging to us.
When we see land as a community to which we belong,
we may begin to use it with love and respect".
Aldo Leopold
"I have never
found a companion that was so companionable as
solitude. We are for the most part more lonely when
we go abroad among men than when we stay in our
chambers. A man thinking or working is always alone,
let him be where he will".
Henry David
Thoreau
