{"product_id":"9781632206947","title":"Backpacker's Guide to Making Every Ounce Count","description":"A Backpacker's Guide to Making Every Ounce Count was written by an avid outdoorsman, for the beginner backpacker and hiker. Also, for those interested in knowing what a Gram Weenie is and how we think. If you are interested in lightening your pack a few ounces at a time, this book covers that very subject. Steven discusses how he used to pack for a trip and how he soon realized that there had to be a lighter way to backpack. A Backpacker's Guide to Making Every Ounce Count offers tips that may allow you to approach your pack from a different point of view, like cutting the tags from your clothes and cutting your toothbrush in half--all in the name of shaving a few ounces of weight.  When planning a trip, you need to look at your gear and ask questions like, \"How many ounces can I shave from this item?\" This book offers some ideas on how to lighten a few ounces from any pack, reduce the weight on your Big Three, and help you define just what type of backpacker you are--a lightweight or an ultra-lightweight backpacker. Remember this, there are sixteen ounces in a pound. If you can shave four ounces from four areas in your pack, you just shaved one pound from your pack. Every ounce truly does count.","brand":"Steven Lowe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46963980075326,"sku":"9781632206947","price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4357\/7662\/products\/9781632206947_11083398-1d17-4f1a-897c-06a45a1c5399.jpg?v=1707574574","url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9781632206947","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
