"I never attempt to hike 10,000 kilometers. It just sort of happened during the period of a decade." And so runs Lawton Grinter's convincing collection of brief stories which have been over ten years and 10,000 path kilometers in the making. I Hike brings the reader trailside with blissful moments on the highest mountain ridges to the mental lows of mosquito hell and into some peculiar situations that even seasoned hikers could find unbelievable. Between jobs and in search of something more, Lawton Grinter spent the better part of a decade trekking America's longest paths. In doing so he came in person with things that go bump in the night time, the kindness of strangers, a close encounter with hypothermia and the absurd privileges of passage common to the eccentric people that call themselves long-distance hikers. Anyone who's ever stepped off the pavement will appreciate these humorous and sometimes agonizing accounts of path life. I Hike can make you laugh, weep, cringe and leave you wanting to read more!
