Stumbling Thru by A. Digger Stolz5/22/2023 The Unlikely Through Hiker – Derek Lugo – a fun personal story of life on the trail.A walk in the woods – Bill Bryson – the book that started it all for me.Appalachian Trails – Zach Davis – great mental strategies for when the going gets tough. Long Trails – Liz Thomas – excellent overall resource.As well as the big ones (Facebook groups, YouTube and backpacking websites including the Trek), I’ve read some cool books looking at different aspects of life on the trail. I’m a big reader and I love a research project, so I have spent many, many hours reading the adventures and advice of those before me. How do you prepare for 3,500+ kilometers of hiking? How do you go from corporate lawyer life to the full-time hiker life (admittedly via 16 months of Rocky Mountain life)? How do you prepare, mentally and physically for such a giant adventure? I’m sure it is different for everyone, but this is how I’m doing it.
