Opis

Read what noted author and Official Arizona State Historian, Marshall Trimble has to say after reading this book, "The Grand Mistress, Hiking the Grand Canyon in Your Fifties and Beyond." The Grand Mistress By Frank Grzesik A person who manages to go through life without finding something to be passionate about has missed one of life's most important experiences. Sometimes life gives us a second chance. Author Frank Grzesik let it get away the first time around but like the old love song, he found it was even better the second time. This is a love story about one man's experience meeting the challenges of nature's greatest architectural masterpiece to earn that Medal of Honor of hiking; a T-shirt that reads, "Rim to Rim." "It's not the canyon we conquer but ourselves." Paraphrasing Sir Edmund Hillary Marshall Trimble Arizona State Historian For years I have loved the Grand Canyon. The intimacy the trails of the inner canyon provide can take one to an ethereal world. This love brought me focus and direction. It got my butt up at 4:30am. It drove me to hike in 110-degree weather in the dead of the Arizona summer. She became my obsession, my mistress. This book is for anyone who enjoys the outdoors, hiking, nature and thinks time has passed them by. This is a story of getting your butt off the couch and setting hiking the Grand Canyon as a personal goal, no matter what your age
