Can you recommend me a book on surviving in the mountains?

Question

I love walking in the mountains and I often find myself in difficult situations. Twice, we were lucky not to have lost our lives.

So, for my future walks, I'd like to read a book on how to survive in the mountains. The best would be someone's true story.

Thank you very much for your answers.

Answer 1

Go to the website below. Les Stroud has a cool show on the Discovery Channel called Survivorman and its about how to survive for one week in the wild. I didn't see any books, but there are video downloads and tons of good information.

Answer 2

I live in West Virginia so I'm always out hiking in the mountains. I don't know what mountains your in so I don't know what type of animals you have. We have bears, bobcats, and coyotes that are scary. Always make alot of noise if you're deep in the mountains and that keeps most animals away. Be sure to find out when a bear has cubs because that's usually the only time they are aggresive.
have fun!
