"Hands-down the most entertained and intrigued I've been while reading about all the ways I could die doing my favorite things in the outdoors. This book should be required reading for anyone who ties on a pair of hiking boots or passes through the entrance of a national park."--Brendan Leonard, author of The Art of Getting Lost, founder of Semi-Rad "Dead Reckoning teaches critical lessons about staying safe in the backcountry with empathy and compassion. Reading about accidents is heavy, but there's so much we can learn from them. This book helps make meaning from tragedy. Whether you're an experienced adventurer or brand new to the trail, its thoughtful analysis will leave you better prepared to stay safe outside."--Caroline Gleich, professional athlete, activist, and contributor to Falcon Guides' Women Who Hike.
