Overview

"I wanted something different, but what I found went far beyond anything I could have expected. Disillusioned by the run-in-place corporate lifestyle, David finds himself unemployed and desperate to move the world under his feet. Bradley, his older, more adventurous, and slightly reckless college fraternity brother, makes an enticing proposal: thru-hike the Pacific Crest Trail, a 2,650-mile Mexico-to-Canada footpath-barefoot. Just a few weeks later, the two inexperienced hopefuls abandon society to soul-search in nature's indifferent embrace. They face the trail's formidable challenges-with rising tensions and the risk of falling behind to the coming winter as their guides. The Trail Provides is an inspiring thru-hiking memoir-a winding and insightful journey of companionship, lessons learned, dreams and reality, and leaving everything behind for transformation. Now, let's start the journey.
