Books to Get You Outside (Vicariously)

Here's a collection of outdoorsy books to pique your adventurous spirit. Some may having you reaching for your hiking boots, watercraft, binoculars or snow gear. Others...perhaps not so much. I tried to include a mix of nonfiction, memoir, classics, adventure, ecology, or anything else that seemed to fit thematically. Enjoy, and if you do venture out into nature be sure to pack the right gear!
