About
This ebook bundle brings together five compelling works of outdoor nonfiction about long-distance trails, whitewater adventure, remarkable people, and the determination to keep moving forward.
The collection includes:
• Just Passin' Thru-Meet thru-hikers and unforgettable characters in 20 true stories from an Appalachian Trail mountain store.
• NOC Stories-Explore the first 25 years of the Nantahala Outdoor Center through 62 entertaining accounts from longtime staffers.
• Ten Million Steps-Follow the Nimblewill Nomad on a 4,400-mile journey on foot from the Florida Keys to northern Quebec.
• Whitewater Rescues-Experience more than 80 true stories drawn from the American Whitewater Accident Database.
• Zero Days-Join a family of three on its six-month, 2,650-mile hike along the Pacific Crest Trail.
Some outdoor adventures are measured in miles. Others are remembered by the dangers overcome and the communities formed around a shared love of wild places. Walk the Appalachian, Pacific Crest, and Eastern Continental trails alongside hikers who face exhaustion, uncertainty, changing weather, and months away from ordinary life. Discover the humor and wisdom found in trail families, mountain hostels, cramped tents, chance meetings, and the simple act of continuing forward, one step at a time.
Then trade the trail for moving water. Revisit the pioneering years of the Nantahala Outdoor Center and the rapid growth of American whitewater paddling. Experience life-or-death accidents, ingenious rescues, and hard-earned lessons from canoeists, kayakers, rafters, guides, and river communities.
Perfect for hikers, backpackers, paddlers, and readers who enjoy inspiring true stories, Long Trails & Wild Rivers celebrates endurance, courage, humor, and the extraordinary people who make each journey truly unique.
