Cicerone Press Walking the Ribble Way: A one-week walk across
Book SynopsisThe 72 mile (116km) Ribble Way is described in seven stages, ranging from 8.25 to 17 miles (13.3 to 27.4km). The route follows the Ribble valley, from the estuary mouth near Preston to the river's source on Cam Fell in the Yorkshire Dales. The route might not be the most challenging of Long Distance routes, but the contrast through a succession of different landscapes can be immensely satisfying for novice and experienced walkers alike.The guide provides detailed route descriptions, OS mapping and a route summary table, with variants included for day walkers. Information is included on points of interest along the route, plus there's also background information on the landscape, wildlife, and history, and planning details on when to go, where to stay and what to take.The River Ribble springs from the limestone of the Yorkshire Dales, high on Cam Fell in the heart of Three Peak country. Initially forcing a passage between high, rugged moorland hills, it then breaks free to wind through gentler countryside south of Settle, meandering lazily through alternating pasture and ancient woodland, where old manor houses and early 18th-century village cottages still hold sway against the pervasive tide of modernity. Beyond Preston, the river dramatically changes yet again, trained to run straight to the Irish Sea, but further to the west, a vast expanse of the salt marsh still remains and attracts huge populations of birds, particularly in winter.

Notes on history, geography and local sights, along with anecdotes from those who have successfully completed the journey, add interest and inspiration. The route is presented in 61 daily stages (each averaging around 32km), divided into 6 sections; an alternative three-month schedule is also provided.

Troubador Publishing The Savage Discipline
Book SynopsisJust a few years ago Jesse Travis Scott hiked Colombia’s famous Ciudad Perdida, a grueling, mosquito-ridden, all-weather-encompassing, 44 kilometer, 4-day hike through the Sierra Nevada mountains near the city of Santa Marta. The average age of his fellow trekkers was about 27 years old, whereas Jesse was about to turn 43 at the time. This is the type of challenge he relished - Jesse was first awake every morning, rising before dawn everyday to meditate and write a page of thoughts and musing. He ended up being the first in his group by a long shot, the only one close to his pace was a young Dutchman almost half his age. The takeaway from this experience is that everything in this book is achievable. The practices can be implemented as a whole or in a modular, ‘take what you need’, fashion. Every single practice, technique, and crazed idea can be utilized to improve yourself and your life in one way or another. The book is written from first-person experience, not hypothetical and the methods and disciplines therein have enabled Jesse to achieve and maintain a successful career across multiple fields and operate at his best both physically and mentally.
