Produktbeschreibung

Ameritrekking and Highpointing: Discovering America the Beautiful is the tale of Accountant Joe, a corporate cubicle rat who was told he had saved too much vacation time and had to use it up. So he did. He hit the road with a map and a camera and a notebook. He returned weeks later after driving 8,000 miles through 23 states. Along the way he found friends, national parks, Native American battlefields, rivers, canyons, craters, mountains, deserts, wildflowers, amber waves of grain, roaring diesel trucks, and silent forests reaching to the horizon. He called this Ameritrekking and kept traveling year after year until he had driven over 120,000 miles-halfway to the Moon-and kept on going.

Every state has one unique point higher than all other points. It is called the highpoint and trying to go to them is called Highpointing. On this first Ameritrek he went to the highpoints of South Dakota and Texas. Now more than two decades later he has been to 45 of the 50 highpoints. Some highpoints are remote; several are major mountains; all are marvelous.
