Andrea Lankford delves deep into the cases of three men who vanished while hiking, but also explores the history of the PCT and the rich, nuanced subculture, practices and literature that surround it.
Andrea Lankford left a decorated career as a park ranger after growing tired of the bureaucracy involved. But years later, three young men went missing on the Pacific Crest Trail in relatively similar circumstances — and she couldn't stop thinking about them.It's a gripping nonfiction narrative that delves deep into the cases of these three hikers who vanished while traversing the PCT.
Lankford launched her own investigation into the disappearances and soon found herself working with the families of those missing hikers, authorities who were on the case—with varying degrees of communication and cooperation—and with other hikers and people who developed an interest in the cases and wanted to help.
