Publisher's summary

How we deal with the mountains that we climb is how we deal with life itself. We face our fears, adjust our mindset, and keep putting one foot in front of the other.

I learned a great many things on the hiking trails of America. One of the most important is that we all climb mountains. Every. Single. Day. I thought I was just hiking mountains. What I was really doing was learning valuable lessons that I could equate directly to life. Hiking thousands of miles over perhaps hundreds of mountains all over the United States teaches you a lot. With that said, you don’t have to be a hiker to enjoy any of these revelations. I’ll frame each lesson with a hiking story from the past, but the takeaways are just as important to anyone as they would be to a hiker. In other words, these are not hiker-exclusive lessons. These nine are the most powerful that I’ve taken from the hikes, the trials, the tribulations, the celebrations, the failures, and the accomplishments.

  • Do it scared.
  • The destination is the journey.
  • Be grateful and be mindful.
  • Your attitude determines your altitude.
  • Find your tribe.
  • Hike your own hike.
  • Expect the best. Plan for the worst.
  • Life is filled with sacrifices.
  • Keep moving forward.

To climb a mountain is to learn about life. It's all about continually moving forward.

Natural

This book is very identifiable for a lifelong hiker. The flow of information that is easily relatable to my experiences. It relates the power of nature that is often misunderstood. Thank you.

Great book

I wish I read (listened) to this book before I bailed after day one of a four day hike. This book is not so much about hiking, but how hiking and the outdoors relates to our wellness and resiliency. I enjoyed it.

Thought provoking perspectives on navigating life for hikers and non hikers alike.

It was amazing to actually feel the correlation between hiking and the emotions we feel as we weave through life always moving forward.
Very uplifting and inspiring. I throughly enjoyed the quotes and even feel compelled to spend more time in nature for my own peace of mind and emotional well being.

A generalist story weakened by poor narration

This is the first negative review I’ve left and it’s almost entirely due to the performance of the reader, Jeremy Francis. His vocal performance is so generic that it took me several times to get through this short book. The story itself reveals little—it’s written for a mass audience and with ponderings such as “life is hard” and “live for the moment.” There’s little here and what remains suffers for the worst narration I’ve encountered. Pass on this.
