Boondocking literally means to "dock" in the "boonies," camping on your own off the grid away from campgrounds, free to howl at the moon, run around in your BVDs, or just read your book in peace and quiet with no one around. But boondocking also means you're on your own, and you'll want to go prepared. Here, Sunny Skye gives you the basics you'll need to know, things like the best rig to have, being independent, coping with boredom and loneliness, as well as dealing with insects, wild animals, and pests.

Ever thought about visiting Yellowstone, the world’s first national park? Be sure to listen to these stories before you go, especially if you want to see the hidden side of the park. Or better yet, listen to them at night by headlamp while camped in one of the park’s beautiful campgrounds, listening to wolves howling in the distance - and are you sure it’s really wolves?

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 9,265
The Appalachian Trail trail stretches from Georgia to Maine and covers some of the most breathtaking terrain in America - majestic mountains, silent forests, sparking lakes. If you’re going to take a hike, it’s probably the place to go. And Bill Bryson is surely the most entertaing guide you’ll find. He introduces us to the history and ecology of the trail and to some of the other hardy (or just foolhardy) folks he meets along the way - and a couple of bears. Already a classic, A Walk in the Woods will make you long for the great outdoors (or at least a comfortable chair to sit and read in).

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 15
Four decades ago, the areas around Yellowstone and Glacier National Parks sheltered the last few hundred surviving grizzlies in the lower 48 states. Protected by the Endangered Species Act, their population has surged to more than 1,500, and this burgeoning number of grizzlies now collides with the increasingly populated landscape of the 21st-century American West. Montana journalist Robert Chaney chronicles the resurgence of this charismatic species against the backdrop of the country's long history with the bear.

Every spring, billions of birds sweep north, driven by ancient instincts to return to their breeding grounds. This vast parade often goes unnoticed, except in a few places where these small travelers concentrate in large numbers. One such place is along Lake Erie in northwestern Ohio. There, the peak of spring migration is so spectacular that it attracts bird watchers from around the globe, culminating in one of the world’s biggest birding festivals. Now climate change threatens to disrupt patterns of migration and the delicate balance between birds, seasons, and habitats.

Publisher's Summary
Ever wish you had a local who could show you around? Someone who would steer you in the right direction without boring you to tears about how wonderful it's going to be? Someone who sees the value in letting you discover and experience things for yourself?
Welcome to the Yellow Cat Explore Series. We believe that half the fun of seeing a new place is discovering things for yourself. We’ll tell you the basics, but we won't bore you with how great our own experiences were or how amazing you're going to feel. We get you there, then let you truly discover and explore for yourself.
In this guide to Yellowstone National Park, we’ll give you the basics, but after making sure you can find your way around the park, have a place to stay, as well as food and gas (and bear spray), we’ll help you truly explore the park’s geology, history, prehistory, wildlife, plants, and people.
For example, did you know that there was a major earthquake (7.5 magnitude) near the park in 1959 and afterwards a dozen or so bears came into the Old Faithful Lodge for refuge? Servers had to walk around them to serve meals. (See the section on the Hebgen Quake.) Our guide has lots of interesting facts you won’t find elsewhere. And who else has an in-the-field expert (Bison Walker) who’s spent their entire life in the park?
Our writers, who we prefer to call guides, are people who know each national park intimately. Some are ex-rangers, some grew up in the area, and some simply fell in love with a particular park and decided to spend as much time there as possible. Our guides are exactly that, guides, people who help you see what's there through your own eyes, not theirs. In addition, they often share stories and facts that are known only by insiders.
Join us in exploring legendary Yellowstone!
