“one of the best books ever written about the pct. a true personal story and a real homage to the trail and its people.” d. mckinsky everyone has a story to tell. this is our story about our adventures on the pacific crest trail. a 2650-mile-hike through the american wilderness. from mexico to canada. this is a story about passion, adventure, love, wonderment and inspiration. the chapters vary in perspective. some stories are told by andre. others are experienced through lian’s eyes. the result is a very personal and interesting story of two different people, who experience the most amazing adventures together. “well written with a great sense of humor. it felt like i was with you all the time. especially at the end. i’m not a hiker, but i feel like i’ve been there and done it. thank you so much!” m. rutherford “an amazing and very impressive story. this is a wonderful book for people who enjoy a challenge. ‘the ultimate challenge’ might have been a good title for this book as well.” j. ridderhof “i have so much respect for you. this story touched my heart and left me speechless. it’s a roller coaster of adventures and emotions.” a. tak “the pure strength to pull through and overcome. so much inspiration. such beautiful characters.” c. embrechts we wish you a wonderful reading experience! andre and lian de jel
