Paperback edition of the larger hardcover book (http://www.blurb.com/my/book/detail/1047557 ). This smaller version may be enough to motiviate your young hiker to try something similar.



Twins Claire and Damien attempt a world record, trying to become the youngest hikers to complete the John Muir Trail "Yo-Yo" hike, but snow and meltwater conditions are harsher than expected and they have to settle for completing a "normal" John Muir Trail. Still a great accomplishment for hikers this young, and perhaps an inspiration to other young hikers to try something usually not considered possible for children.
