Craving adventure, but don't know where to start? Writer and outdoorsman Brendan Leonard insists an experience doesn't have to be risky to be exciting—you can satisfy that desire by simply getting outside your comfort zone—and he's compiled fifty trips of varying difficulty and length (from "half-day" to "quit your job") with lots of advice thrown in for good measure. The Art of Getting Lost gives you tips on what to pack, how to save money, and where to go, whether you want to spend an afternoon rafting the Middle Ocoee River in Tennessee or hiking Redwood National Park in California, or would rather go big and spend six weeks riding the Great Divide mountain bike route or trekking the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal. No matter your budget, ability, or time availability, you're sure to find something inspiring within the pages. So, what are you waiting for? Go!
