Hiking the Edge of Winter: Trails Between Autumn and Snow

By Praise Debrah

Step into the silent, transformative world of early winter hiking with Hiking the Edge of Winter: Trails Between Autumn and Snow. In this immersive first-person account, I take you on a journey across alpine ridges, deep snowfields, and blizzard-laden trails, revealing the delicate balance between autumn's fading warmth and winter's icy dominion.
From exposed summits to hidden glacial streams, each chapter chronicles not only the physical challenges of extreme terrain but the mental and emotional endurance required to navigate nature at its rawest.

Whether you are an experienced mountaineer or a dedicated outdoor enthusiast, this book will guide you through nature's most challenging transitional landscapes while transforming the way you perceive the journey, the terrain, and yourself.
Experience the edge of winter. Learn its lessons. Respect its power. And find the quiet beauty that only those who tread carefully between autumn and snow can truly know.
