Just a quick reminder to let you know that there are still a few days to enter my contest to give away eight copies of Andrew Skurka's new book The Ultimate Hiker's Gear Guide. Andrew just might be the best long distance hiker ever and he shares a ton of wisdom in this book. You can read my review on the guide here.To win a copy of The Ultimate Hiker's Gear Guide all you have to do is drop me an email at [email protected] telling me which of Andrew's great adventures you would like to do yourself. Trust me, he has plenty of awe inspiring expeditions under his belt and even though us mere mortals will probably never do them, it is still fun to dream. Please use "Ultimate Hiker's Gear Guide" as the subject in your email so that I'll know what it is in regards to. I'm accepting entries into the contest through March 31st and with in a day or two after that I'll be picking the winners.
When I last posted on this contest I noted that there weren't a lot of entires yet and that most people seemed to be interested in the Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim hike. Since that time I've received a lot more emails and some of Andrew's other excursions have started to gain more votes. At the moment, I'd say his Alaskan adventures are in the lead with the Alaska-Yukon Expedition out in front. That is one grueling choice, which only proves that Adventure Blog readers love to suffer on their outdoor excursions.
Good luck to everyone!
