Hiker talks about 7,778-mile trek
In July 2005, Andrew
Skurka completed a 7,778-mile walk from Cape Gaspe, Quebec to Cape
Alava, Washington, becoming the first person to completely thru-hike
the transcontinenal Sea-to-Sea route. I have a fascination with
thru-hiking, but I have to say--the thought of walking across Minnesota
in the depths of winter is not my idea of a great time. Skurka will
give a talk and slide show about his epic journey at the Seattle
REI store on Sat. April 15 at 1 p.m. Judging from his website, the
photos and story should be extraordinary.
