At 71 he walked the Pacific Crest Trail and shared his experiences and suggestions. He met folks along the way that he's still in contact with today. His message was clear: "When you hike, it doesn’t matter the age, the political affiliations, religious membership, where you are from...we are all one is this endeavor to be in the wild and experience nature.
