Bringing Yourself Back Alive ($9.95)
Hal's book on how not to need search and rescue
(and what to do if you do need help)

It takes only a few wise decisions to save a life - yours
(See contents below)

Hal has years of experience with people who had bad luck or used bad judgment. Bad luck can't be prevented but bad judgment can. In this book Hal teaches the principles of good judgment in the backcountry. Read it and you should never need the services of search and rescue.

Rocky Henderson, President Emeritus, international Mountain Rescue Association.

Must reading for anyone venturing into the many million acres of America's wilderness under any weather condition. This book tells you how not to get lost or stranded, but if you do, it also explains what to do and not do to get out safely and unharmed.

Wendy L. Fencsak, FACS/Wilderness Instructor, Canby School District, Canby, Oregon

Hal has done an expert job of compiling facts and stories to keep us all safe. This book, the first of its kind, reminds us of the challenges of human nature and the reality of Mother nature. No matter what, we are all mere mortals.

Jaret McDonald, professional SAR member, outfitter and guide, JS Outdoors, Los Alamos, NM

The valuable information in this book has long been needed. It should be in the personal library of every hiker, would-be mountain climber, and back-roads adventurer. This knowledge of the wilderness has long been in the minds of only a few.

Jack Grauer, 1960's rescue member, 50 year Mazama climber
