Hip-Hop Hares and Other Moments of Epic Silliness

The editors of Outside magazine proudly present 71 one-in-a-million images gleaned from 324 issues of their back-page ''Parting Shot'' photo feature. This collection pays tribute to the pratfalls and singular coincidences of an outdoor life—the comic circumstances of relatively tame mammals (us) spending more time closer to large, wild animals. And, increasingly, those same relatively tame mammals spending more and more wild time with each other. It's a chance to look into the wide world outside and laugh at both ourselves and that infinitely wondrous, entertaining three-ring circus we call life.
