Inspired by those early adventures, Kevin went on to travel and explore Europe's largest mountain range, the Alps, on foot and on skis throughout the years. In 2011, he moved to San Diego, California, which quickly became his gateway to the Golden State's vast and varied backcountry. Together with family and friends or solo, Kevin has since embarked on many backpacking adventures and multi-day trips in state parks, national forests, and of course the Sierra Nevada mountains. With a degree in business and IT, he is not only fascinated by the physical and mental challenges arising from hiking long distances, but also by streamlining all aspects of the planning process and trying out new advances in gear. To Kevin, hiking is a great way to escape the comfort zone and reconnect with nature while exploring remote and pristine corners of the world that are solely accessible on foot.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 146\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.31 x 9.02 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 12, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51796396704032,"sku":"9781943126019","price":21.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/4d8e80296dd73f39d2d8cf6ab4c006f4.webp?v=1780756621","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/plan-go-lone-star-hiking-trail-all-you-need-to-know-to-complete-texas-longest-wilderness-footpath-paperback","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
