Read "Touching the Void" -> Then Hike @ Ft. Ben


Details
Let's Read -> Then... Hike (New Event Theme for 2025)
*Seeing if there's any interest in a Meetup like this, Pls RSVP if you begin reading and plan to attend. (Exact date could change depending on weather and/or personal schedule)
Please try to read the book (or at least part of it) by the event date:
- The book for today's event its: Touching the Void (Ice Climbing in Peru)
- Click to view a synopsis of Touching the Void - on Amazon or copy/paste/click this URL: https://www.amazon.com/Touching-Void-Story-Miraculous-Survival/dp/0060730552/
THE PLAN: is to read and then discuss the book for all or part of a hike.
Tentative hike date: The date is always tentative and might change due to weather or personal obligations.
Distance & Pace: The distance will be between 4.5 to 6 miles. I'm not 100% sure of our pace, but for casual conversation, I'm thinking it would probably be between 20 to 23min per mile.
BRING: Water (maybe sunscreen, hat etc., most of the trails have moderate tree coverage)
THE NEXT BOOK (tentative date pending):
- In case you'd like to plan ahead, the next book will be Woodswoman: Living Alone in the Adirondack Wilderness (Adventures alone in the NY Adirondack Mountains)
- Click to view a synopsis of Woodswoman or copy/paste/click this URL: https://www.amazon.com/Touching-Void-Story-Miraculous-Survival/dp/0060730552/
