free Skills and Tips
Finding instructional information about mountaineering skills, wilderness camping, or survival skills can have you running around from one library to the next. And most likely,
the result is only a few chicken-scratch drawings of knots, demonstrations, and maybe a black-and-white image. Moreover, the explanations and descriptions
on how to do these things are hardly clear and often incomplete.
We are compiling an extensive database of SKILLS and TIPS so that you no longer have to spend hours searching for clear images and explanations to learn from.
We make it easy for you to learn and practice these skills on your own. Most people don't have the money or free time to pay a guide to show them a few things.
But High Sierra Adventures is dedicated to giving you all the free information you need to learn the most efficient and practical ways of backcountry living and
more importantly, practice these skills safely on your own time.

free online guide to Wild Edible and Medicinal Plants of the Sierra Nevada
The Sierra Nevada is one of the longest continuous chain of mountains in America. It stretches 360 miles north to south and covers about 90 miles east to west.
But the real distinguishing and phenomenal characteristic of the Sierra is that from west to east, it ranges from sea level to over 14,000 feet. The Sierra is huge. In it lies
a diversity of plant and animal life like no other in the world. From the Black Oak trees of the Sierra foothills to the Sky Pilot of the extreme High Sierra, you'll find more
diversity in 90 miles than you will in most nations altogether. Logan Parker, the author of Wild Edible and Medicinal Plants of the Sierra Nevada, has posted his field
guide of more than 50 edible and medicinal plants in an online version that is free for you to study or browse for your botanical interest. Click on the picture to the left to access
