Book Signing Mont-bell Store Portland

Post by allgood96 » November 30th, 2015, 8:52 am

When-This Saturday December 5th, 10am -3pm
Location - Mont-bell Store 902 SW Yamhill.
Who and What- Mary "Speedstick" Moynihan and get a copy of her book "Married to the Trail: Hiking the Continental Divide Trail"

Speedstick is a Triple Crowner, and is about to set off Jan 1st to become the first women to complete a Calendar Year Triple Crown,

Married to the Trail is travel narrative that tells the story of the author's 133-day solo hike along the Continental Divide Trail (CDT). It blends the scenic beauty of nature with an honest narrative of being a woman out there on the trail. The route leaves the Mexico border and threads its way north through New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana. It walks through some of the most exceptional land of our country, and yet few wander its entirety. At twenty-seven and as a solo female, Mary yearned to be one of those few. It's a demanding trail, one marked by weather extremes like heavy snowpack, flooded rivers, and thirty-mile waterless gaps, as well as prolonged solitude and navigational challenges that require adept map and compass skills, or sheer luck.
