This pocket-sized gift and souvenir photo book captures the beauty of America's quintessential wilderness hiking trail. From desert California to the Washington-Canada border, the compelling photography of Bart Smith brings the entire 2,650-mile trail to life.

This beautifully illustrated book, officially published with the Pacific Crest Trail Association in a pocket-sized gift and souvenir format, highlights this legendary footpath with more than 170 spectacular contemporary images taken by the foremost hiking photographer in America. Readers can experience the trail as if their boots were on the path--passing by the trail blazes, taking in the surrounding wilderness at scenic overlooks, meeting other hikers at lean-tos or shelters, and freezing at the sight of bear, elk, or other majestic wildlife. 
Designated as one of the first two national scenic trails in 1968, the Pacific Crest Trail is a continuous footpath of more than 2,650 miles--from the Mexican to the Canadian border. It is often called the "wilderness trail" because roughly half of it runs through federal wilderness--25 national forests, six national parks, five state parks, three national monuments, and 48 federal wilderness areas. The trail symbolizes everything there is to love--and protect--in the western United States. This book is perfect for anyone interested in conservation, outdoor recreation, or American history, or for those who dream of one day becoming thru-hikers themselves.

Photographer Bart Smith has walked and photographed the length of the Pacific Northwest. Craig Romano is an award-winning author of more than 20 guidebooks and has hiked more than 25,000 miles in Washington State. William L. Sullivan is the author of 22 books about Oregon hiking, history, and mystery. Three-time governor and a U.S. senator, Daniel Evans authored the Washington State Wilderness Act protecting 1.5 million acres of wild lands. Trail Keepers of Oregon (TKO) and Washington Trails Association (WTA) protects and enhances the hiking experience through trail maintenance, advocacy, stewardship, outreach, and education in Oregon and Washington, respectively.
