À propos de cet audio
Carrot Quinn fears that she's become addicted to the Internet. The city makes her numb, and she's having trouble connecting with others. In a desperate move, she breaks away from everything to walk 2,660 miles from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest Trail. It will be her first long-distance hike.
In the desert of Southern California, Carrot faces many challenges, both physical and emotional: pain, injury, blisters, aching cold and searing heat, dehydration, exhaustion, loneliness. In the wilderness she happens upon and becomes close with an eclectic group of strangers - people she wouldn't have chanced to meet in the "regular world" but who are brought together, here on the trail, by their one common goal: to make it to Canada before the snow flies.

Loved the journey
The day to day may be a bit repetitive, but I loved her journey. I thought it was very interesting and it’s left me wanting to read more adventure non fiction.

really unique - honest story of challenges
This book is really well done, Carrot is an honest and open writer. I enjoyed this journey, she did well describing her experiences. Oddly enough I felt I was with her everyday. Highly recommended for those who want to step away from this busy life and follow someone who had the courage to do it, thanks Carrot!

Wow, I really enjoyed that.
Wow, I really enjoyed that. Gritty, beautiful, inspiring, crazy, intimate - what an adventure. The voice actor is fantastic and it’s a story that you can quickly get lost in. I wish Carrot had a book for each of the hikes she has gone on to do. I really enjoyed that. Thanks Carrot.

Great story narrative. Loved the details, felt like I could envision most of the story.
first off we'll done a 14hr22min story, I expect a story about a 2,660 mile journey to be a long story she hiked from Mexico to Canada on the PCT. these short story's on the PCT are not as descriptive as this one. I felt like there was more room for her story. maybe a book 14hrs describing a section or 2 at a time so the people that never hiked anything like this could feel and evision being on the trail next to the story teller. otherwise we'll worth the listen.

quite lovely
I needed a break from all the books i had and was quite surprised in how much i enjoyed this book. Great narrator that keeps you engaged and wanting more as the book unfolds. Reading this book gives a good sense of the ups and downs of being on trail. Over all great book would recommend if you like to hike.

journal entry style.
a bit hard to continue through. I sped it up to plow through it as the story didn't really develop.

An interesting perspective
Every person’s hike is unique and this story focuses on the personal experience rather than the trail it’s self; on the emotional rather than the technical. That doesn’t take anything away from the book, in fact it is true to its name.
There are countless highs and lows on an adventure of this scale and there will be relationships formed that make all others seem shallow and lifeless. Sometimes you will have plenty and other times you will have 50 miles to go and only 1500 calories in your food bag. It was interesting to see how she reacted to these situations and what her internal struggles were.
This is a valuable perspective on the trail.
Congratulations and thank you for sharing your journey with us

Overall good thru hike book
Essentially it was what I was looking for as far as a thru hike book goes. I will be hiking this and I wanted an accurate depiction what day to day life was. It’s a thru hike, it’s gonna be repetitive; she did well to break up the monotony of it. It was written with fair emotional appeal however her overuse of some words was annoying and I understand it was a personal story, it bothered me that she essentially ditched her friends that helped her through sections of the hike, for a guy that didn’t wait for her when she was sick, that’s she’ll never see again. It ruined the whole book for me.
The narrator was mono tone and lacked enthusiasm but it was palatable.
