I have several 2019 presentations coming up in Redding, the Sacramento area, and other cities about day hiking and backpacking the beautiful trails of Northern California, from the Sierra Nevada to Lassen Volcanic National Park to Mount Shasta to the Trinity Alps to Redwood National and State Parks.
I’ll be discussing my favorite hiking trails (with lots of pictures, of course), and I’ll be telling a few tales of the trail, including ones from my new book Hike the Parks: Redwood National & State Parks.
I’d love to have you come to one and introduce yourself!
Format of the Presentations
I present for about 45 minutes, followed by a 5-10 minute Q&A session, and then a book signing. All my books will be for sale at all the presentations.
