Smarter Backpacking - The Appendix: The illustrated companion to Smarter Backpacking on lightweight trekking and ultralight hiking techniques

Smarter Backpacking - The Appendix - is a richly illustrated (more than 140 photos) and updated companion to Smarter Backpacking by the same author. It distils the complexity of wilderness travel into its simplest core concepts, allowing the reader to enjoy the freedom of backpacking rather than be encumbered by it. It is a book for day-hikers and thru-hikers, newbies and experienced backpackers or travellers alike. Everyone benefits from a lighter pack.

Said about Smarter Backpacking:
Jorgen Johansson has a no-nonsense, non-preachy approach, based on his 40 years of wilderness ramblings, designed to help average backpackers shave weight, not comfort or safety, from their loads.
-Kristin Hostetter, gear editor Backpacker Magazine

Some authors have a guru approach that's too specific to their personal hiking
style, while others fail in offering practical advice because they're too generic
and theoretical. Smarter Backpacking achieves a happy-medium: Jorgen Johansson shares his personal preferences and opinions, but he knows that backpacking is not a "one size fits all-activity" so he is sure to qualify his views and to recognize the views of others.
-Andrew Skurka, renowned long-distance adventurer and a National Geographic "Adventurer of the Year" and Backpacker "Person of the Year"

There have been several books on lightweight and ultra light backpacking since Jardineâ€™s. One of the most interesting is JÃ¶rgen Johanssonâ€™s Smarter Backpacking, which is about applying lightweight and ultra light techniques. JÃ¶rgen is from Sweden , and his approach shows that lightweight backpacking can work in wet or cold northern climes.
-Chris Townsend, outdoor writer and long distance hiker, gear editor of TGO
Magazine and author of The Backpackerâ€™s Handbook

Jorgen Johansson distils the complexity of wilderness travel into its simplest core concepts, allowing us to enjoy the freedom of backpacking rather than be encumbered by it. His approach is not only a simpler one, but a vastly smarter one.
-Ryan Jordan, Founder, BackpackingLight.com

Smarter Backpacking aims to make better hikers through use of ultralight hiking techniques, rather than create more ultralight hikers. The spot-on advice is presented in an easy-reading conversational style, rather than a lecture, like you were sitting around a campfire with Jorgen Johansson.
