The book was published on February 7, 2020. Each book has an intro that teaches how to get the most out of it, then presents the destinations and links, and the Appendix contains a Digital Hiker’s Manual based on a hiking and backpacking school safety course. There’s also a biography and details about how Presari and these ebooks were created over the past 17 years.
The Amazon Look Inside the Book feature opens up 25 percent of the book with live search links.
I believe you will be surprised at how useful this ebook is. I have not found anything like it online anywhere.
This is a powerful and quick way to get better information-and since each click or touch triggers a search, the results are always current. The results change constantly and offer people new insights and information. People can always add words to refine results even more using the slice and dice and time tools at the search engines anytime.
These ebooks will open your eyes and show you how to get more from searching than ever before. They add a whole new dimension to elearning with smart phones. You will improve how you search and get better results.
You will find that Bing Maps is far better than Google Maps for travel information including hiking trails, campgrounds, and other key topics of major interest. It is less commercial and more educational – an online illustrated travel guide with real-time reviews, ratings, and drop-down tools/filters for accommodations, gas and prices, restaurants, grocery stores and more.
One of the more fun things to do with any the national parks, is to click on the shopping buttons at Google and Bing. This will make your mouth drool if you love the parks.
And you can live stream the interactive Cal-Topo digital maps while traveling from your smart phone to a computer screen in your car via Bluetooth.
I very much appreciate the opportunity to answer any questions by phone, video or email.
I would also be happy to receive a request to focus on a local, topical, or technical question and create a unique digital explorer feature story for you.
Please let me know how I can help you.
