Autorenporträt

Since childhood, Elizabeth "Lizzy" Wenk has hiked and climbed in the Sierra Nevada. She continues the tradition with her husband, Douglas Bock, and daughters, Eleanor and Sophia. As she obtained a PhD in Sierran alpine plant ecology from the University of California, Berkeley, her love of the mountain range morphed into a profession. In 2007, with the publication of her first Wilderness Press title, writing guidebooks became a way to share her love and knowledge of the Sierra Nevada with others. Lizzy continues to obsessively explore every bit of the Sierra, spending summers hiking on- and off-trail throughout the range, although she lives in Sydney, Australia, during the "off-season." She is a board member of the John Muir Trail Wilderness Conservancy, helping guide the organization to preserve and restore lands that have been loved a little too roughly. Lizzy's other Wilderness Press titles include John Muir Trail, Top Trails: Yosemite, Sierra North, Sierra South, One Best Hike: Mount Whitney, One Best Hike: Grand Canyon, 50 Best Short Hikes: Yosemite, and Wildflowers of the High Sierra and John Muir Trail, which is a perfect companion book for all naturalists.
