About this ebook
This story of two friends hiking over 1,300 miles is "a worthy successor to Bill Bryson's classic book . . . A Walk in the Woods" ( The VVA Veteran).
Avalanche and Gorilla Jim is a true picture of what it's like to hike over 1,300 miles of fun-filled, gut-wrenching, awe inspiring trail, filled with the humor of two guys on a long trek over grueling terrain. It allows the reader to actually live and feel Appalachian Trail life and its excitement, adventure, and fun—and reveals how in a sometimes crappy world, you can meet people who enrich your faith in humanity.
This is the Appalachian Trail with all its beauty and flaws, an inspiring and often laugh-out-loud story of friendship and the incomparable experience of the outdoors.
