Samenvatting

See life through the lens of a thru-hiker as she walks over 2600 miles from Mexico to Canada along the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail. She begins the trail with the sole purpose of getting to Canada, and quickly realizes that she has a lot to learn about herself and the world around her before the end point is even within reach. Much more than just an account of miles, meals and mammals, this book details the trail life through the lessons the author learned and how they parallel with normal life. The trail proves to be a raw experience, with life lessons that slap you in the face and leave you grateful for the clarity that comes with the territory. Even if you never hike a single mile, the trail life could be for you. It is a gauntlet of physical pain and mental anguish, a roller-coaster of a life where you are in complete darkness, never knowing when the next turn is or if you’ll soar to new heights or careen towards the ground. Yet, there is a light at the end of the tunnel for those willing to look past the hardships and find life-changing realizations that are woven into our everyday lives, just under the surface but invisible to the untrained eye. Each part of the book takes aspects from life on the trail, like the simple act of drinking water, and not only portrays that puzzle piece of trail life to the reader, but also applies it to everyday life, making connections that make us more aware of our surroundings, our actions, and our mindsets. This book is for those who enjoy, appreciate, and understand challenging life experiences and the new outlooks gained on both yourself and the world around you. Starting with the basics of food and water and working all the way up to a happier, more fulfilled life, evaluate the way you look at yourself, your choices, and the life around you through entertaining, yet thought-provoking tales from the trail.
