Acerca de esta escucha

Disillusioned by the corporate lifestyle, David finds himself unemployed and desperate for change. Bradley, his older, more adventurous, and slightly-wreckless college fraternity brother presents an enticing offer. Just a few weeks later, the two inexperienced hopefuls abandon society and plunge into a soul-searching sojourn to thru-hike the Pacific Crest trail, a 2,650-mile Mexico-to-Canada footpath - barefoot. At the trail’s mercy from day one, the two hikers face the endless pains of walking, rising tensions, and falling behind to the coming winter.

The Trail Provides is a thru-hiking memoir filled with stories about companionship, lessons learned, dreams and reality, and leaving everything behind for the desire of transformation, insight, and self-discovery. Now, let’s begin the journey....

Honest and captivating

This is the 4th PCT “memoir” I have read and I just loved it (and hated for it to end)! I do believe it is my favorite.

David’s honest recollection of the highs and lows of his time on the trail was truly captivating. Hearing him describe the evolution of his own thinking, handling of trail life and relationships along the miles was excellent.

From a literary perspective, there was just enough “conversation” included without too much “he said, she said” to detract from the story. This was much appreciated and allowed each vignette to flow.

I personally found I needed to listen at 1.25 speed, but tested first... I am happy to say that didn’t change the sound or character of David’s voice much at all. Sometimes that isn’t the case.

I feel like a personal friend of David’s now! Well done!

Absolutely Loved This Book

The book was amazing. I loved David’s point of view and the way the book was narrated. It really put a cool perspective on all aspects of the trail and experiences he had on the trail. It makes me want to pursue doing the trial myself. It’s been a goal for me. And after enjoying this book, I am definitely starting my planning. Thank you David for sharing your journey!! I Highly recommended this book !

Enjoyable

Honestly wasn’t sure about the narration at first, but ended up appreciating the personal contribution it lends. It was well written, and thoughtfully written. I was sad it was over so that’s a good sign!

Detailed Experiences on The PCT

Book is well written and insightful. Narrator and author has laid back, comfortable reading style. Detailed, and contains good cautionary advice (subtle not overbearing) for those seeking the type of adventure. I am always amazed at those who endeavor these thru hikes. I love high elevation hiking, and learn a lot from books like these. So far, a 2,000+ mile hike has not been my passion but I applaud those who undertake and achieve their long hike goals.

This book allows me to experience something that I currently don’t have the ability to do. And also inspired me to start working towards achieving the goals I have .

Pushing your limits!

I had a close friend in my youth (I'm 65) that gave me a copy of A Walk Across America by Peter Jenkins. It caught my imagination of doing that kind of adventure and accomplishing a difficult task. I've also listened to Cheryl Strayed's account, Bill Bryson's humorous Walk in the Woods, Ethan Galogly the Trail. My wife passed in 2022 and I have a lot of time to listen to books while I work, and in the evenings. When I listen to a particulary engaging story, which this is, I will often be longing to not step out of the story, when it ends, as I feel with this one. Thank you David, many great life lessons can be learned with that kind of punishing journey. We have it too easy in this modern existence and we crave that kind of raw reality and pushing our physical limits which enevitably leads many to spiritual enlightment. I think I am going to delve in to John Muir's First Summer in the Sierra.
