I'm so happy I saved this book for a second read. It's been awhile since my first read throgh, and I enjoyed it just as much this time around. I like how she describes her hike day by day, practically. Since we've been living in St. George, I've been able to hike more regularly.
I'm so funny, though, because I read about Anish's adventures, and I think, I should do that! Yes, I could do ten or twenty miles a day with blistered feet! And then I go up to Snow Canyon and hike, which I love, and I'm really tired after five or six miles! One day I did nine, and had to rest for two days! It would be fun to build up my stamina, but at age 72, maybe this isn't the right goal for me.
Through-hiking isn't my goal, but building up to ten is a worthy goal, one that I could possibly sustain. And I would love to do more hiking with the grandkids, although Henry is the only one currently who seems to enjoy it. That's okay. And this weekend, Gabe has agreed to hike with me when I'm there. Hooray! Hooray!
