Default A Walk in the Woods

Found this book during a mutil-day trek out by Lake Louise (Mystic Pass/Badger Pass). Funny as all hell, and it's about a guy who randomly decides to hike the Apalachian Trail.

It's a good read, and the first 100 pages will have you in tears as you relate to the hardships and logistics of multi-day trek planning.

All his other books are equally funny. He's got the knack for a good turn of phrase.
