Two Books

Here are a couple of books that I recommend for those who like backpacking, hiking and travel through beautiful vistas. Both are by Colin Fletcher, “The Thousand-Mile Summer: In Desert and High Sierra” and “River” One Man’s Journey Down the Colorado, Source to Sea. They make you feel as it you are there experiencing the trip with him.
These books recall the family’s many experiences with the Colorado Mountain Hills Club, Contra Costa Hills Club and our camping.

The hikers became uncles, aunts and grandparents to the children who were far from the real thing way out there in Colorado and California.
