The Waypoints: From 400 Farewells and 3,000 Miles
A Physical Journey, A Spiritual Adventure
At the age of sixty-one, Diane Gansauer committed to something hiking the entire length of the Continental Divide Trail, from Mexico to Canada.
Over a seven-year journey through mountains, rivers, and forests, Diane continued her work officiating celebrations of life. By the time she completed all thirty-one hundred miles of the trail, Diane had honored more than four hundred life stories through memorial services and gatherings. The Waypoints chronicles the wisdom that overlapped her experience of these lives and the trail, like stacked stones on the path, guiding the way.

The path least traveled:
I was looking for a trail book with hints on making hiking easier, what to take or not, and suggestions on restocking.
I could have done without the 400 farewells.
