Summary

It's the "Triple Crown" of backpacking: the Appalachian Trail (AT), Pacific Crest Trail (PCT), and Continental Divide Trail (CDT), with a combined distance of 7,900 miles with a vertical gain of more than one million feet. Anderson had hiked all three by the time she was 25; a few years later she left her job, her marriage, and a dissatisfied life to walk back into those mountains. Here she shares her willingness to turn away from the predictability of a more traditional life in an effort to seek out what most fulfills her. -- adapted from info provided
