Must adventure disappear from your life as children enter? Not at all! It can be the best learning experience your family will ever encounter… Doug Woodward and Trish Severin have spent decades introducing their children to the value of living at ease in the wilds of nature, as well as learning lessons from people who live much simpler lives than do most of us in the United States. These pages come alive with exciting family adventures and blend with the philosophy of why these parents would choose such paths. Their now-adult children also reflect on how this upbringing has given them the confidence to move with assurance in whatever environment they may find themselves, relating to family, friends and strangers in ways that most children rarely understand at an early age, if ever. As a jump-start for your own family adventures, Doug has outlined equipment checklists and planning advice for a variety of trips that will take you beyond the routine. Don't wait! There is hardly an age too young for an exciting family experience! 102 photos. Appendix of planning advice and equipment checklists to cover hiking, camping, bicycle touring, canoeing and rafting - in the U.S. and abroad.

Autorenporträt
Bringing with him expertise from another lifetime - working with teens to build boats in his basement workshop and planning odysseys to rivers of the West in an old school bus - Doug easily adapted these skills and his engineering background to family life on the mountain, as well as the adventures to which he and Trish would introduce their children. He carries a deep love for the land on which he and Trish chose to build their family home. Located in a natural watershed, care of the water quality and the design of several gravity water systems have been priorities for Doug. He continues to enjoy planning and carrying out new projects, blending them with Nature's design, and can analyze and repair almost any problem that occurs in the house or on the mountain. Doug is passionate when it comes to carving out time for writing, whether the project is a new book, a short story or a poem that is begging to be brought to life. His writing and photography have appeared in numerous outdoor magazines, from the U.S. to England and Germany. If an environmental or social problem needs attention, you will likely find a letter from Doug to the appropriate congressman, as well as in the local newspapers.
