The second volume in the A Life Outside series brings together 15 all-new essays and stories about the outdoor lifestyle. A Life Outside 2 maintains the trademark humor of the first volume while also looking more closely at the meaning of the experiences. But whether mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, rock climbing, mountaineering, fishing, or doing something else, the author reveals each activity for what it truly is--just an excuse to get outside, enjoy life, and maybe learn something along the way.
