Camping or backpacking in winter is appealing for many who enjoy the serenity of wilderness settings without the crowds and bustle of the summer season. But as rewarding as they can be, these outings require special preparation and a different set of skills than are necessary at other times of the year. Snowfall can quickly cover one's tracks and make orientation difficult. Hypothermia is insidious, and rapidly changing weather conditions can become treacherous, even life-threatening.

In addition to those who are exploring the outdoors recreationally, there are also those who find themselves in unexpected winter survival situations. Each year, people become stranded in wilderness areas, and in most cases they are not equipped to face the challenge of spending an indefinite amount of time outside. Without sufficient gear or knowledge of how to improvise without it, injury or death is often the result. The development of some basic skills, however, can help avert such unfortunate outcomes.

As the founder of the renowned nature awareness program Primitive Pursuits, Dave Hall has been practicing survival skills for more than twenty years and has amassed a comprehensive understanding of winter survival. By refining these skills, Dave has reached a point of understanding that is without peer. Through detailed explanations, illustrations, and personal anecdotes, Winter in the Wilderness imparts Dave's knowledge to readers, who will learn to meet their most basic needs: making fire, creating shelter, obtaining safe drinking water, navigating terrain, and procuring sustenance.

Winter in the Wilderness is a handbook for those who want to explore cold-weather camping and those who might find themselves in need of this critical information during an unexpected winter's night out. Whether used for pleasure or for survival, Winter in the Wilderness emphasizes the benefits of enriching and deepening our connection with the outdoors.

Good price
Size: 26"/16"/13"
Seems to be decent quality, only used them for a few weeks, but they’re doing a good job. Easy to install and can’t beat the price! I’ll definitely recommend them as of now, will update on the longevity.

Worth the purchase!
Size: 26"16"12"
Perfect fit for my 2018 Subaru Crosstrek. Blades seem to be fairly durable. I live in the Pacific Northwest. So, they get a lot of use in the winter. I don’t expect them to last more than a years worth of use, but for this price I think it’s worth it. Maybe I’ll be surprised and they’ll last longer. No streaking so far after using them all winter. Well pleased with this purchase! Would recommend as an affordable, functional replacement blade.

Quiet and easy to install on your car or SUV. Good quality blades.
Size: 24"/18"/14"
Wiper blades were easy to put on and come with an easy to follow instructional booklet. Wiper blades themselves are constructed well and made of quality rubber material. The other advantage is they come with all three blades which saves you time and money. Took about 10-15 minutes to replace all three wiper blades which can be done without any tools. The blades are quiet and so far do not cause any streaking. I recommend these blades if you’re looking for OEM quality blades that are easily replaceable and quieter than old blades that need replacing. They work well in heavy rainstorms.

Perfect fit at a perfect price!
Size: 26"/24"/14"
I was hesitant at first with buying an all-in-one set. In the past, I had to buy the windshield wipers separate from the rear due to compatibility issues. I read the reviews and took a chance. The material quality far exceeds what the price would suggest. The size matched the old blades. They look sturdy and will hold up over time. The instructions are mostly pictures but that proved to be enough. All you have to do is remove your old wiper blade. Identify the wiper arm end. Find that style on the installation sheet. Identify what clip configuration is needed for your wiper arm end from the same installation sheet. You may have to remove some layers of the new wiper blade assembly. It's easy to do since they are clipped on top of one another. For my 2021 Honda Pilot I had to remove the top two pieces to expose the type of clip I needed. It just snapped into place with minimal effort. Once both were installed I tested them by cycling wipes with wiper fluid. No streaks told me I had consistent contact throughout the wipe cycle. The back was simple. I had to rotate the old blade all the way around until the blade faced upward. Then I supported the wiper arm while I pulled the old blade out and away. The new blade is installed facing upward. As you rotated the blade downward, apply pressure towards the wiper arm and the blade will snap into place. I tested with a wiped cycle and the blade had constant contact with the glass. Crystal clear vision at the front and back. I will trust this brand with my other car, a 2017 Volvo XC60, and submit a review at that time. Order now! Operators are standing by!
