SHORTLISTED FOR OUTDOOR BOOK OF THE YEAR 2012 - THE GREAT OUTDOORS
MAGAZINE The Pacific Crest Trail stretches some 2,650 miles from
the Mexican border to Canada. It meanders through the scorching
deserts of California, the dramatic Sierra Nevada, the volcanic
landscape of Oregon and the vast forests of Washington. Every year
around 300 hikers attempt to walk its entirety. Of every ten who
start, four will give up in the first month alone, and only two
will reach Canada. Extremes of heat and cold, the toughness and
roughness of the trail and encounters with an assortment of
potentially deadly creatures stretch walkers to their absolute
limits. It's a lesson Keith Foskett soon learns the hard way,
having to deal with blisters and other physical ailments, as well
as his inherent phobia of snakes, spiders, bears, getting dirty and
camping in the woods after dark. With the harsh winter looming, he
enters into a desperate race against time, facing a dangerous,
physical and very real threat to become the last Englishman to
complete the greatest long distance hiking trail on Earth.
