A Walk In The Woods

I read A Walk In The Woods over winter break, but since I haven't felt like writing I'm just now posting about it.

It's a fairly funny story of a guy who decides to hike the appalachian trail. The author, Bill Bryson, was unprepared for the challenge and his hiking buddy was hilariously unprepared. So it is an interesting view of hiking and America through the eyes of someone who doesn't have backpacking experience. He did do some interesting research and include it in the book - such as he's very down on the national forest/parks services.

Overall if you're into hiking/backpacking it's a funny read.
