Historia
The Trail is a moving story of how nature helps us find what’s missing in our lives. The tale begins with Gil, who in the wake of his father’s death and recently fired from his job, agrees to accompany his father’s old hiking partner Syd on a month-long trek on the John Muir Trail. There’s just one problem: Gil hates camping and is woefully unprepared for the rigors of the journey. Moreover, he soon learns Syd may not survive the hike.

One of the best forms of therapy is simple: Get out and stay out - as often and for as long as you can. In Both Feet on the Ground, Marshall Ulrich champions “disconnecting to reconnect”, urging you to spend time unplugged, eat food whose origins you understand, and push yourself to try something bold and personally compelling.

Only a few years ago, Alex Honnold was little known beyond a small circle of hardcore climbers. Today, at the age of 30, he is probably the most famous adventure athlete in the world. In that short time, he has proven his expertise in many styles of climbing and has shattered speed records, pioneered routes, and won awards within each discipline. More spectacularly still, he has pushed the most extreme and dangerous form of climbing far beyond the limits of what anyone thought was possible.

Resumen del Editor
The uplifting story of two unlikely mountaineers: a man in late middle age and a fearless pint-sized pup who, together, scale Colorado's highest peaks.
By the time life had finished hitting Rick Crandall from all sides, he was at the lowest point of his life, both personally and professionally. Depressed to find himself facing a mid-late-life age crisis and watching his finances crumble as the tech industry bubble burst, he hopes his future isn't headed downhill. It is at this critical juncture in their new marriage that his wife, Pamela, makes an astute and life-changing suggestion: "Let's get a dog."
So begins the story of Emme, a 200-pound Saint Bernard trapped in the body of a five-pound Australian terrier puppy. Soon, Emme and Rick hit the hiking trails around Aspen, Colorado. While she is groomed to be a show dog, it's soon obvious that her heart is in the hills and with Rick, who decides to add more challenging hikes to the mix. Before long, they are scaling Colorado's "fourteeners", peaks with altitudes of over 14,000 feet. On one magical day, Emme climbs to the top of four "fourteeners", a quarter of the 16 such peaks she will complete during her life without once being carried on a trail or on the rocks on the way to a summit.

The Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail (PCT )is the perfect place for an average person to do something extraordinary. Bill Walker ("Skywalker"), who stands 6'11", might seem like anything but average. Yet in a brutally honest tone, he lays to bare all his considerable weaknesses and fears. Among these are crushing weight loss and fatigue, along with a fear of getting lost or a bear stealing his food. Nonetheless, he is bound and determined to hike the PCT which - at 2,663 miles - runs all the way from Mexico to Canada.

At the beginning of his memoir Life Lived Wild: Adventures at the Edge of the Map, Rick Ridgeway tells us that if you add up all his many expeditions, he’s spent over five years of his life sleeping in tents: “And most of that in small tents pitched in the world’s most remote regions.” It’s not a boast so much as an explanation. Whether at elevation or raising a family back at sea level, those years taught him, he writes, “to distinguish matters of consequence from matters of inconsequence.” He leaves it to his listeners to do the final sort of which is which.

until we meet again, find peace in heavens hands!!
Great story of an Aussie Terrier helping Rick Crandall find purpose and fulfillment as they move on to the next stage of their life. If you like dog stories, this is a classic right up there with Following Atticus. Hiking, intelligent dog with an amazing relationship with her human.

Beautiful Memoir
Sweet memoir written about a special dog. Originally purchased by the author's wife in hopes of being a show dog, CH Lucky Lady Emme ultimately became the author's hiking companion (and often, leader). This book is well written and I'm sure can be appreciated by anyone who has ever loved a dog. Thank you Rick Crandall for sharing Emme's story.
Regarding the narrator, I didn't realize this was the same narrator of a book I recently listened to, and that I don't like his style at all. He has the voice of someone reading to very young children. This book was written well enough that his narration could ultimately be overlooked. But I will definitely remember to check next time.

Heartwarming story for dog lovers
This book was sitting in my library, unread, for a couple of years. Once I started listening to it, I loved it and couldn't stop . very relatable!

Dull
Expected tales of mountain adventures but was presented with endless stories of dog shows, breeding and competitions.
