This book opens with the author describing her adventures into the Sierra--at a time in her life when most of her peers were buying recliners instead of backpacks. Then follow the exploits of other gutsy women as they ford ice-chilled streams, clamber up steep mountainsides, chase away hungry bears, or await rescue by helicopter. Whether scaling mountains solo or lounging with friends near a crackling campfire, they are reaping the rewards of their strenuous days and soaking in the wonders of nature.

Made in USA.
