Made me want to go backpacking even though I haven't been in 10 years. I'm not sure that the author really effectively conveyed her spiritual/emotional journey but it was good travel writing nonetheless. ”

Cheryl lost her mother and almost went down a path of self-destruction until she decided to walk the PCT. It was a story of her life and healing. It was moving, funny and touching!”
