???In the footsteps of Desert Solitaire, these essays by an award-winning
writer and student of cultures sift decades of experience backpacking and
boating for a stance that questions the mainstream. More than mere
tales of bravado, they offer glimpses into the heart of the places explored,
with the Grand Canyon as their center of gravity. Vivid, finely crafted, shot
through with humor, self-effacing while deeply opinionated, No Walk in
the Park shows what it means to meet nature on nature's terms. Read it at
home in an armchair, or at a river camp, or stuff it into your pack before
you go wandering.
Join this author on a night hike to the great chasm's bottom; trek forty days in
his company below one rim, or snowshoe along the other; visit a Hopi mesa
for a ceremony; marvel at hidden rock art; sip epic solitude; tag threatened
fish; and float next to Glen Canyon's slickrock or Niagara-size fleeting falls.
