Autorenporträt

Peter Stekel lives in Seattle. He has hiked in the Sierra Nevada-mostly Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks-since he was twelve years old. That is a long time. But not long enough. He is also the author of The Flower Lover and Best Hikes Near Seattle. More photos can be found at the book's website. You will also find links to videos Stekel shot at the glacier, newspaper stories, television programs, book reviews, a schedule of personal appearances, and other things of interest to readers of Final Flight. Stekel's blog, documenting his research, is also at the site.
