5-0 out of 5 stars A great resource .... fun read also !
This book is an excellent resource, whether you are an experienced or first time trip leader of a multi-day river trip.

I've been an active trip leader since 1997 .... from weekend trips within a few hours drive from home .... to month long trips deep into wilderness. I purchased this book in 2004 and have found it an indispensible reference. This book provides a very methodical way to plan, organize, and pack for a trip (includes check lists etc) .... I find that using this book means I use my pre-trip time more efficiently and I worry less about whether or not I've fogotten or overlooked something !!So it is worth every cent:-)

Maria Eschen presents what sounds like a dry subject in a very amusing way. The approach she documents for planning a trip is also applicable to many types of group multi-day wilderness trips (e.g. climbing, mountaineering, ski touring) though obviously the river and equipment specific info is not applicable! ...

The content was sparse, but ok, as were the pictures. But for [the price] it was a complete disappointment! The book looks like one of the old, "golden books" of my childhood, and I was hoping for a bit more in the way of content for that price.But if you want something concise, with a few pictures, to put on your coffee table or for your child, this would be fine at maybe half the price.Maybe ... ...

Product Description
Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: see text The North American River Otter (Lontra canadensis), also known as the Northern River Otter or the Common Otter, is a semi-aquatic mammal endemic to the North American continent, found in and along its waterways and coasts. An adult river otter can weigh between 5 and 14 kg (11 and 30 lb). The river otter is protected and insulated by a thick, water-repellent coat of fur. The river otter, a member of the weasel family, is equally versatile in the water and on land. The otter establishes a burrow close to the water's edge in river, lake, swamp, coastal shoreline, tidal flat, or estuary ecosystems. Their dens have many tunnel openingsone of which generally allows the otter to enter and exit the body of water. Female otters give birth in these underground burrows, producing litters of one to six young. North American river otters, like most predators, prey upon the species that are the most readily accessible. Fishes are a favored food among the otters, but they also consume various amphibians, turtles, and crayfish. There have been instances of river otters eating small mammals as well. The range of the North American river otter has been significantly reduced by habitat loss, beginning with the European colonization of North America. However, in some regions their population is controlled to allow the trapping and harvesting of otters for their pelts. River otters are very susceptible to environmental pollution, which is a likely factor in the continued decline of their numbers. A number of reintroduction projects have been initiated to help stabilize the reduction in the overall river otter population. The North American river otter was first described by German naturalist Johann Christian Daniel von Schreber in 1777. The mammal was ... More: http://booksllc.net/?id=1322292 ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars kids love it; makes you think.
I wish they would reprint this entire Survival! series, darn it.We found the Otter one in a second-hand store and my 3- and 5-year-old adore it. What you do is, as you read, you have to choose the animal's actions out oftwo ormore options.Will he go up the bank or try to catch the slowfish, etc.? Whichever action you choose has a consequence. It is sort of anaturalist's version of Goosebumps "You Choose the Scare", andmuch more informative. The author makes it clear that pollution andencroachment of humans on animal habitat make for a greater percentage ofdangerous choices, which is why some types of wildlife are disappearing. Even after my little boy "learned" which choices were safest forthe otter to make, ensuring a "survival" outcome, he still wantedto read it again and again.Though my preschoolers liked it, I wouldactually recommend it for ages 4-8. ...
