Carey Kish: “7,500 Miles on Foot: Tackling the Triple Crown of Hiking”
A tireless hiker and author of Best Day Hikes Along the Maine Coast, Beer Hiking New England, and the Maine Mountain Guide, Carey Kish is well known for his regular hiking column in the Maine Sunday Telegram.
Experience the highs and lows of long-distance hiking as he shares stories and images of his journeys on America’s Appalachian, Pacific Crest, and Continental Divide trails. Spectacular mountain scenery, challenging weather and terrain, and life lessons learned putting one foot in front of the other alone for months on end—it’s all part of the great adventures Carey will share.
