A long-awaited, complete update of the definitive guide to Teton climbing

"In the days of the Wild West, the "outlaw trail" was a series of rugged routes linking remote hideouts from Canada to Mexico. Winding through mountain ranges and desert mesas, into river valleys and slot canyons, these interwoven trails were frequented by cattle rustlers and bandits, including Butch Cassidy and his Wild Bunch gang. Discovering the Outlaw Trail explores some of the most stunning and significant locations in the West so you can ride, hike, bike, or paddle along the same routes legendary outlaws traveled. Packed with history and beauty, the region offers opportunities to combine historical discovery with outdoor activity for many fun-filled adventures. Visit Butch Cassidy's boyhood home, then take an exhilarating mountain bike ride in Utah's Red Canyon; drive through South Dakota's fabled Black Hills, taking in Badlands National Park, a hike to the summit of Black Elk Peak, or a ride on the restored 1880 train; visit a former silver-mining and gambling town in the morning and whitewater raft on Colorado's Upper Arkansas River Valley in the afternoon. The region offers a cornucopia of options for outdoor adventures as well as plenty of museums, historical sites, ghost towns, and scenic drives"--

Gumbo je esencí kreolského a cajunského väení, povinné jídlo na jídelním lístku kädé restaurace a srdce domácí kuchyn¿.P¿edstavuje nejlep¿í domorodé m¿kký¿e, stejn¿ jako místní klobásy, dr¿be¿, divokou zv¿¿ a ko¿ení. Vzniklo v Louisian¿ v osmnáctém století a sv¿j název odvozuje bu¿ z bantuského slova pro okra (gombo), nebo z choctawského slova pro filé (kombo). Okra i filé, co¿ jsou rozemleté listy sassafras pou¿ívané domorodými Ameri¿any, slou¿í jako zahu¿¿ovadlo gumbo spolu s jí¿kou, základem mouky osmahnuté na oleji. Nejb¿¿n¿j¿ím zahu¿¿ovadlem je jí¿ka, která je podobná omá¿ce. Míra zhn¿dnutí ur¿uje barvu gumba. Místní kuchäi ¿asto získávají tmav¿ hn¿dou barvu, která dodává hotovému produktu hlubokou a robustní chu¿.Tradi¿n¿ cibule, celer, a paprika (známá jako trojice místní kuchyn¿) plus ¿esnek se prosy¿í do jí¿ky a p¿idá se vývar, aby vzniklo Gumbo. P¿ísady od m¿kký¿¿ p¿es dr¿be¿ ä po divokou zv¿¿ vytvá¿ejí typ a chu¿ gumy. Ko¿ení, jako je kajenský pep¿, tymián a bobkový list, m¿ní chu¿ pokrmu, aby kuchäe pot¿¿ilo, a gumbo se podává v miskách s rý¿í. Nejvýrazn¿j¿í styly gumbo jsou kreolské (New Orleans) a Cajun (jihozápadní Louisiana). Kreol¿tina pou¿ívá raj¿ata a Cajun ne. Proto je jeden hn¿dý a druhý ¿ervenohn¿dý. Kreolské gumbo má tendenci mít ten¿í základ, zatímco cajunské gumbo je vydatn¿j¿í, tmav¿í a n¿kdy tlust¿í a je vhodn¿j¿í pro pou¿ití zv¿¿iny, jako jsou divoké kachny.V ji¿ní Louisian¿ se ¿výkäky podávají na v¿ech stolech, bohatých i chudých, a ve v¿t¿in¿ restaurací, luxusních i jiných.

Gumbo yra kreol¿ ir kajun¿ virtuv¿s esm¿, privalomas patiekalas kiekvieno restorano meniu ir nam¿ ruo¿os ¿irdis.¿ia pristatomi geriausi vietiniai v¿¿iagyviai, taip pat vietin¿s de¿ros, pauk¿tiena, laukiniai ¿v¿rienai ir prieskoniai. Jis kil¿s i¿ Luizianos XVIII am¿iuje ir kil¿s i¿ bantu kalbos ¿od¿io okra (gombo) arba choctaw ¿od¿io, rei¿kian¿io filé (kombo). Ir okra, ir fil¿, kurie yra vietini¿ amerikie¿i¿ naudojami malti sassafras lapai, kartu su roux, aliejuje apskrudint¿ milt¿ pagrindu, yra gumbo tir¿tikliai. Labiausiai paplit¿s tir¿tiklis yra roux, panäus ¿ padä¿. Nuo to, kiek jis parudav¿s, priklauso gumbo spalva. Vietiniai vir¿jai dänai gamina tamsiai rud¿ spalv¿, kuri suteikia galutiniam produktui gil¿ ir tvirt¿ skon¿.Tradici¿kai svog¿nai, salierai, Paprika (¿inoma kaip vietinio maisto gaminimo trejyb¿) ir ¿esnakai apkepami, o sultinys dedamas Gumbo gamybai. Sudedamosios dalys - nuo v¿¿iagyvi¿ iki pauk¿tienos ir laukini¿ med¿iojam¿j¿ pauk¿¿i¿ - sukuria gumbo tip¿ ir skon¿. Prieskoniai, tokie kaip kajeno pipirai, ¿iobreliai ir lauro lapai, pakei¿ia patiekalo skon¿, kad patikt¿ vir¿jui, o gumbas patiekiamas duben¿liuose ant ry¿i¿. I¿siskiriantys gumbo stiliai yra kreol¿ (Naujasis Orleanas) ir Cajun (pietvakari¿ Luiziana). Kreolas naudoja pomidorus, o Cajun ne. Tod¿l vienas yra rudas, o kitas - rausvai rudas. Kreol¿ gumbo pagrindas yra plonesnis, o Cajun gumbo yra nuo¿irdesnis, tamsesnis, o kartais ir storesnis, tod¿l labiau tinka ¿v¿rienai, pavyzd¿iui, laukin¿ms antims.Piet¿ Luizianoje gumbos patiekiamas ant vis¿ stal¿, tiek turting¿, tiek varg¿¿, o daugumoje restoran¿ - prabangi¿ ar kitoki¿

"The Rocky Mountains are not one continuous, homogenous range formed at the same time by the same processes. The more than 100 separate ranges can be divided into the Northern and Canadian Rockies, Middle Rockies, and Southern Rockies separated by plateaus and basins. Each region has its own distinct topography, geology, and ecosystems. Within each region, altitude, precipitation, and exposure create broad, well-defined life or bio zones with numerous unique habitats and vegetative associations, or communities, of plants. In this book, wildflowers and shrubs are lumped together, with trees in a separate section. Herbaceous perennial wildflowers freeze down to the roots ever winter and sprout in the spring. Annuals die in the fall and depend on seeds to germinate in the spring. Shrubs have woody stems and branches and reach 3-10 feet tall (1-3 m), sometimes developing into small trees. Trees usually have a single trunk and are greater than 15 feet tall (4.5 m). Herbaceous trees and shrubs lose their leaves in the autumn (aspen, cottonwoods) while evergreen species retain their leaves (pine, spruces, and firs)"--

"Pioneering Women of Glacier National Park examines the role of early pioneering women in the pre-park period up through the first three decades of Glacier Park (1910-1940). The concept of 'pioneering women' includes a wide range of activities that were atypical for women during this time period. These activities range from Blackfeet and other Native American women carrying out extraordinary feats, to women homesteaders, wives of early Park rangers, writers visiting and writing about the park, artists engaged in outdoor painting, influential artists' wives who furthered their husbands' careers, and pioneering outdoorswomen. All helped advance the cause of putting female faces and names, largely ignored and anonymous up to this point, into the history of the park. The book also has several modern photographs taken by the author and others, illustrating landscape changes in Glacier Park since the early period of the park."--Back cover.
