about the book
America is crisscrossed by a vast hidden web of hiking trails. Alongside our familiar grid of crowded streets and highways, those trails form an alternate reality—one that leads to wild nature and scenic beauty. Hiking on a wilderness trail such as the North Inlet Trail or the Long Trail takes you to rare sights: a one-hundred-mile view of a lightning storm or a freeze-frame glimpse of an eagle snatching a salmon from a stream. It takes you within earshot of a cougar’s scream or a loon’s lonesome cry. Trails can lead to solitude, to unexpected wonders, and back to basics—to a sense of what you can do and what the earth has to offer.
