When Dan and his girlfriend set out to hike the Pacific Crest Trail his parents wondered how two people who had never shared an apartment could survive in a four-by-six foot tent in the desert. Not to mention the fact that the trail stretches from Mexico to Canada through boiling desert and snowcapped mountain passes. Since its inception only about 1 000 people have successfully hiked the trail fewer than have climbed Mt. Everest. Despite the warnings of their loved ones and even some naysaying strangers Dan and Melissa set out into the wilderness. They are dubbed "The Lois and Clark Expedition" by their long-limbed loping guru "The Gingerbread Man" after covering the requisite number of miles to be considered official PCT thru-hikers. As the desert gives way to mountains and the winter threatens to abbreviate their trek the hardships of the trail provide these addled adventurers a crystalline view of the American wilderness themselves and each other. THE CACTUS EATERS is a wickedly funny travel memoir with heart as well as the story of "one and a half step" Warren Rogers co-founder of the Pacific Crest Trail. Rogers overcame polio and risked ruin during the Great Depression to chart the trail from beginning to end. As Dan White walks in Rogers footsteps he starts to wonder if hes assumed the mans bravery or his insanity. eBook<
