"Where was Mike when I tried to read Great Expectations?"

So that's what you call Playboy magazine? And there were plenty of pictures.....

I've ordered a few of Mike C's books to the Barnes and Noble I work at in Atlanta to spread the lightweight gospel to the masses.

I'm amazed at how outdated and just plain wrong most of the hiking books are. Even the "updated and revised" ones advocate things like "wear a light colored cotton shirt against your skin to keep you cool and manage moisture"

Good thing we have Mike to set the record straight!

For anyone outside the US ordering Mike's new book, I found that bookdepository.com in the UK was the cheapest way to ship to Australia. Free international shipping, and the same purchase price as any of the big sellers in the US.

No affiliation, just a happy customer.

Can't get enough of Mike C. Always useful and a good proxy for when I can't get outside.

Mike! Post links from your other blogs to your new one! on 07/04/2011 16:40:24 MDT Print View

Mike,
I keep trying to find your new site and can't do so without coming back to this BPL post. Google searches on your name and backpacking tips point to lots of interviews and your old sites, but not your new one. At the very least could you post a link to the new site from your boing marks site?
