Synopsis

At 80 years old, George Graybill unknowingly set the age record for hiking the 210-mile John Muir Trail. His reaction? Puzzlement more than pride—where was everyone else his age? In Still on the Trail: Trail-Tested Wisdom for Lifelong Exploration, Graybill blends adventure, humor, and philosophy, offering both inspiration and practical wisdom for older backpackers (and those who fear their days on the trail are numbered). From embracing physical decline to navigating the camaraderie of the trail, this book isn't just about hiking—it’s about finding meaning, freedom, and resilience in the wild.
