About This Book

A first-person travel narrative follows an author and a poet companion as they tramp through the Rocky Mountains, recording climbs, campfire evenings, weather extremes, and close encounters with wildlife. The text mixes practical trail anecdotes—maps, coffee, makeshift shelters—with reflective passages on art, recitation, and the emblematic images that arose during the journey. Along the route are meetings with diverse local communities, sketches of frontier life, and a crossing into Canada, all presented as episodic vignettes that balance humor, danger, and wonder while conveying the rhythms of wilderness travel and the friendship that shapes the expedition.
