Have you ever wanted to take up a new outdoor sport but thought,
"Not me" or "Where do I begin"? In this unique take-it-with-you
guide, outdoors and fitness writer Joe Miller introduces you to
sixteen adventure sports in the Carolinas, from water to land and
through all four seasons. No matter where you live or what your
level of expertise may be, he will lead you to opportunities that
range from beginner level to peak experience and equip you with the
tools and courage to get outdoors and enjoy nature in new and
exciting ways. For each experience, Miller includes location, how
to start, associated costs, organizations that can help you begin,
physical and mental demands of each activity, and whether the
activities are seasonal or competitive.
Activities include mountain biking, flat-water and whitewater
paddling, scuba diving, climbing, backcountry exploration, skiing,
snowboarding and tubing, kiteboarding, hang gliding, and
ziplining.
