An honest account of a woman's trek on the John Muir Trail is captured in this lively trail journal. Celebrate her joy as the beauty of the High Sierra in California is slowly revealed, feel the comradery of trail friends she meets along the way, and sympathize with her when all she wants is for the trail to end. Along the way — hikers of all ages — but especially mature hikers, will see how she and her husband met challenges head-on, lightened their load, planned meals and managed daily logistics for more than three weeks on the trail.

enjoyable memoir
Reviewed: 09-14-24
I enjoyed reliving some of my JMT experience through the author's stories. However, I did not like the narration at all. It, in fact, decreased my enjoyment. it almost sounded like it was read by AI. The reader was too young to depict a personal experience by the author. She has a clear, nice tone but was the wrong choice for this book.
