A Fabulous Thru-Hike with Author Derick Lugo

Join us in the store for a lively storytelling as author and thru hiker Derick Lugo shares his newest adventure, A Fabulous Thru-Hike—a humorous, reflective, and deeply personal continuation of the journey that began in The Unlikely Thru-Hiker. In this new chapter, Derick returns to the trail with fresh miles, fresh lessons, and the same wide open curiosity that launched his first odyssey. His story celebrates grit, growth, and the joy found in every muddy, imperfect step, reminding us that the most meaningful adventures aren’t defined by the miles we cover but by the person we become along the way. This 90 minute event includes a 45 minute presentation, a 30 minute Q&A, and a book signing to wrap up the evening. Books will be available for purchase. About Our Speaker: Derick Lugo is a thru hiker and author known for his humor, honesty, and perspective on long distance trekking. His books have been featured at REI stores nationwide, with his newest title appearing in select locations this season.
