Edible Survival Plants of the Rocky Mountains: A Folding Pocket Guide to Familiar Species

Edible Survival Plants of the Rocky Mountains is an easy to understand survival guide. This handy guide can help hikers and backpackers lost in the Rocky Mountains forage for food using wild plants and trees. Laminated, water-resistant, ultralight and made in the USA, it was written for practical, real world survival use. The plants and trees in this guide were selected because they are widespread, easy to identify, and cover a wide range of seasons, environments and life zones (i.e., winter/summer; Plains to Alpine Zones, etc). The guide also contains helpful tips on how to use Rocky Mountain plants and trees for bushcraft and survival use, as well as many other cool "factoids" about the historical and Native American uses of each individual species.
