If you love empty highways like I do, and if you're trying to decide where to travel in the Rocky Mountain West, why not let my books serve as your tour guide? They'll draw you to little-used trails, uninhabited landscapes, and abandoned two-laners. The magic feeling I got while field researching the books was always similar--whether I was driving through the open spaces of central Montana at dusk on a June evening, alpenglow igniting the west slope of the Crazy Mountains; cycling over an expanse of vibrant slickrock high atop Gooseberry Mesa in southwest Utah; or riding horseback up a narrow trail in Wyoming's Wind River Range. Retrace my tracks and you'll be touched by the same magic--guaranteed.
