Craig Romano is a proliﬁc (more than 25 books and counting!) and award-winning author, an ardent conservationist, and a Northwest trails and hiking expert. He hikes, runs, paddles, and bikes and yet still has time to write for several publications, websites, and tourism agencies. He provides weekly content for Hikeoftheweek.com and writes content for the Tread Map App. When not on the trail hiking or running, or on the road running marathons and ultra-runs, he can be found at his home in the Skagit Valley with his wife Heather, son Giovanni, and Maine-coon cat Beau.
