Book excerpt: Whether it be through far-flung deserts, luxuriant forests or majestic alpine terrain, when we choose to walk rather than fly or drive, something wonderful happens: our awareness and appreciation of the natural world begins to grow. It can be the faint sound of a gently meandering stream, the distinct smell of decaying leaves on a crisp autumn morning, or even a bowl of cereal that never tasted better than when eaten on a mountaintop at sunrise. Whatever your hiking dreams and goals may be, this book will inspire you to plan and realize your your journeys.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 'High Country Hikers Edition' of Hiking Life's Difficult Trails contains the same, life-changing information as the original edition, yet also adds a short but uniquely organized daily devotional at the end of the book, arranged by the author himself. Its purpose is to teach and inspire explicitly those who are partial to the more glorious treks of the high mountains. Hiking Life's Difficult Trails is a spiritual journey--an arduous challenge. This particular journey is better suited to those who have learned to live with remorse--earned through a broad diversity of loss, pain and suffering. There are those who in time develop what it takes to negotiate difficult terrain in life, and there are those who do not. Yet, to have what it takes has only one requirement--humility. We all fail in one way or another each day. Admit it or not, we just can't seem to attain perfection. We usually blame God for our inability to live as we should, but then praise Him when He allows things to get a little better. We just can't seem to find a way to be content in our circumstances, and be thankful for both the good ones and the bad ones. But, the bottom line is, we actually have some profound misunderstandings--about life, about circumstances, and about God Himself. It's time once again to hike along with award-winning author, Mark Stephen Taylor. In this third volume, he takes us back to the Wilderness Trail--not just to hike along its rim, but to explore its depths--to hike up its buttes, among its sharp crags, and into its areas of parched desolation. Mr. Taylor helps us to better understand the difficulties of this earthly life, and leads us along a most profound trail of discovery, illumination, and hope. Hiking is indeed great therapy. So, what are you waiting for? C'mon along--lets do it!

Book excerpt: Once a person hikes a long trail, they catch the bug, but does it get any easier the second time around? Four years after starting the Appalachian Trail with his brother, Brian takes to the Continental Divide Trail for his second thru-hike in familiar company. However, trail life is not always as rewarding and romantic as the pictures you see or second-hand stories you hear. "Divided" provides an accurate account of life on trail: what hikers ponder, eat, love, loathe, and the questions they tire of answering. Some moments are too short, some are painfully long while others are whisked away unceremoniously with the wind. Follow along on the journey as Brian navigates difficulties, successes and everything between while attempting to walk from Mexico to Canada.

Book excerpt: Nature has taught me more about life than I ever thought possible. I found that how we deal with the mountains we climb is how we deal with life itself. We face our fears, adjust our mindset, and keep putting one foot in front of the other. One of the most important lessons I learned is that we all climb mountains. Every. Single. Day. I thought I was just hiking mountains. What I was really doing was learning valuable lessons that I could equate directly to life. Hiking thousands of miles over perhaps hundreds of mountains all over the United States teaches you a lot. With that said, you don't have to be a hiker to enjoy any of these revelations. I'll frame each lesson with a hiking story from the past, but the takeaways are just as important to anyone as they would be to a hiker. In other words, these are not hiker exclusive lessons. These 9 are the most powerful that I've taken from the hikes, the trials, the tribulations, the celebrations, the failures, and the accomplishments. - Do it scared. - The Destination is the journey. - Be grateful and be mindful. - Your attitude determines your altitude. - Find your tribe. - Hike your own hike. - Expect the best. Plan for the worst. - Life is filled with sacrifices. - Keep moving forward. It wasn't until a few years ago that I started to assemble and sort through many of the lessons I had learned. Most we just take for granted. It isn't until we contemplate what we've learned that we can digest and assemble it properly. To climb a mountain is to learn about life. It's all about continually moving forward.
