The inspiring account of a 2700 mile solo hike from Mexico to Canada along the Pacific Crest Trail. Despite never having hiked before, George Spearing decided to take “leave of absence” from his job as a firefighter in the New Zealand Fire Service and walk the length of America.
This is the story of his five month journey, traveling entirely on foot and off-road through the desert areas and snowbound High Sierra Nevada of California, the Cascade ranges of Oregon and Washington to finally emerge in the Okanogan Forest of British Columbia, Canada. The diverse mix of dry Mojave desert, High Sierra snows and the characters and wildlife met along the way, provide an often humorous look at the US and its wilderness through the eyes of a New Zealander.
