Guest Blog on SectionHiker

On the Pacific Crest Trail in Oregon in 1982 - scan from a Kodachrome 64 slide.

Just published on Phillip Werner's excellent Section Hiker site is a Guest Blog I've written entitled Hard Lessons & Inspirations about my early backpacking mistakes and the books that taught and inspired me.

This is one of a series of Guest Blogs currently running on Section Hiker during August. Good ones have already appeared from Dennis Blanchard, Ron Strickland and Bill Walker and there are plenty more to come.
