Download or read book Hiking the Oregon Coast Trail written by Ken Patton and published by KenKinetic. This book was released on 2022-05-03 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “As I read Hiking the Oregon Coast Trail (or How I Got Revenge On My Sister), I felt as if I were making the trip with Ken. His absorbing account and over one hundred striking photos convey the beauty of the Oregon Coast. His tenacity carried him through cold nights, bushwhacking, and blistered feet; and his sense of humor served him well throughout the journey. If you are looking for an adventure without the blisters, I highly recommend this book.” – Lynne N. Cosby, Freelance Editor If you drive on Highway 101 down the coast from the Columbia River to the California border, the distance is about 360 miles. Walking the trails and beaches is a lot farther, somewhere around 460 miles if you include those acquired while wandering around lost or backtracking when the trail is blocked by high tides. This is a good “starter” adventure for a guy like me, who dreams of adventure but is actually pretty timid and not anxious to experience real adventure, which too often includes things like hunger and fear and pain and suffering. Will I enjoy this hike as much as I’ve dreamed? I hope so. It’s time to find out. Book Review: "As I read Hiking the Oregon Coast Trail (or How I Got Revenge On My Sister), I felt as if I were making the trip with Ken.

Download or read book Secret Walks written by Charles Fleming and published by Santa Monica Press. This book was released on 2015-05-12 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revised and Updated in November 2020! Secret Walks: A Walking Guide to the Hidden Trails of Los Angeles is a sequel to the popular Secret Stairs: A Walking Guide to the Historic Staircases of Los Angeles, and features another collection of exciting urban walks through parks, canyons, and neighborhoods unknown and unseen by most Angelinos. Each walk is rated for duration, distance, and difficulty, and is accompanied by a map. The walks, like those in Secret Stairs, are filled with fascinating factoids about historical landmarks—the original Bat Cave from Batman, the lake where Opie learned to fish on The Andy Griffith Show, or the storage barn for one of L.A.’s oldest wineries. The book also highlights the people who made the landmarks famous: the infamous water engineer William Mulholland; the convicted murderer and philanthropist Colonel Griffith J. Griffith; Charles Lummis, who walked from Cincinnati to Los Angeles to take a job on the L.A. Times; and tobacco millionaire Abbot Kinney, who dug canals to drain the marshes south of Santa Monica and create his American “Venice.” Written in the entertainingly informed style that has made Secret Stairs a Los Angeles Times best-seller, Secret Walks is the perfect book for the walker eager to explore but tired of the crowds at Runyon Canyon or Temescal Park.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the seven county "metro" area that encompasses the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul lies a network of hundreds of miles of trails. Hikes were selected to be representative of the area, showcasing the park or region's main attractions or personality. Some of these trails are broad, paved corridors through multi-use parks generously developed to provide a myriad of recreational opportunities for the young and old, the robust trekker, and the casual stroller. Trails are based in a wide range of areas such as walkways of grass winding through majestic stands of Minnesota hardwoods. Other hikes are spider-web networks that remind one of well-used deer trails. Some are isolated within a pocket of greenery surrounded by vast ribbons of freeway concrete and broad subdivisions. Others are woven within the fabric of parklands so expansive that you could literally spend weeks hiking all the networks lying within their folds. Twin Cities' hiking is huge so get the guide that gets you there and back. This decisive guide to day hikes in the Twin Cities' area just got better. Updated maps, new hikes, new photos, and brand-new trailhead coordinates make Tom Watson's authoritative guide even more useful than before.

Order from bookstores everywhere in 4-6 weeks!] Southeast Asia is a world filled with mystery and intrigue, and one that doesn't give up its secrets easily—as the author and his wife soon found out! Walking To Singapore is an often hilarious, but always informative look at the daily lives and disparate cultures of the region, and provides insight into the history of the region, the best (and most bizarre) foods, even religious temple etiquette. The book celebrates the beauty of Southeast Asia: swimming with sea turtles in Malaysia, seeing the sunrise from the rim of a smoking volcano, the Grand Palace in Bangkok, and watching wild orangutans waking at sunrise in Borneo. The author's adventures also take them to some of the most magnificent historical and archaeological wonders of the world such as Angkor Wat in Cambodia, Burma's city of 4,000 temples at Bagan, and the magnificent Buddhist and Hindu monuments of Borobudor in Indonesia. Helpful as a guide to budget travel in Southeast Asia—for about $10 per day!—Walking To Singapore also recounts some of the difficulties and downright danger that await—from an all night journey along the Road to Mandalay in Burma, to leeches in Sumatra, to grenade attacks in Phnom Penh!
