Mythbusting the Great Outdoors by Jamie Siebrase
Mysteries, misunderstandings, mistakes and unapologetic myths lurk in every corner of the great outdoors. Does a red sky at night really mean anything? Where exactly does moss grow, and who really did blaze America’s epic trails? This book tackles these and more myths that plague the world of outdoor adventure. Myth-busting the Great Outdoors will explore common misconceptions, debunking beliefs even long-time outdoors enthusiasts erroneously take as fact. From survival misconceptions to animal lore, the essays in this book will examine a range of topics appealing to newcomers and experts alike.
Jamie Siebrase grew up in the city, on asphalt tennis courts and groomed soccer fields. Her first camping trip was a three-day, hike-in, teambuilding excursion with AmeriCorps St. Louis -- and after that, she was hooked. Jamie has hiked all over Colorado with her husband and children from their home base in Denver. When she isn't on an adventure, she's writing features for a variety of publications, including Outside, Trail Runner and Elevation Outdoors. Her long-form journalism has appeared on the cover of Westword, and she was a guest columnist for The Denver Post. Jamie's sons, Jon and Brian, share their mom's enthusiasm for hiking. Their stamp of approval ensures selected hikes are actually fun for kids.
