Description

The timeless hiking classic The Fastest Hike has been revised based on popular demand. This true adventure story is about a man who dreamed up an extraordinary challenge and attempted to set a speed record for hiking the 2,659-mile long Pacific Crest Trail-through the high and dangerous mountains of California, Oregon, and Washington. Relive the author¿s epic battles with dehydration, foot-shortages, losing the trail, snowy high-altitude passes, river fjords, and wildlife. Whether you¿re an armchair-, weekend-, ultra-distance-, or thru-hiker, his honest account of survival, fear, and loneliness, as he pushes north from Mexico in an all-out effort to reach Canada in record time will intrigue you. Read about the Pacific Crest Trail and thru-hiking as it once was.
