    About this ebook

    Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

    #1 I was mountain biking by myself in the far southeastern corner of Emery County, in central-eastern Utah, on April 26, 2003. I had twenty-five pounds of supplies and equipment on my bike ride, which was difficult to move forward due to the wind.

    #2 Lightweight travel is a pleasure to me, and I’ve figured out how to do more with less so I can go farther in a given amount of time. I biked the twelve-mile loop of the Slick Rock Trail over east of Moab yesterday, carrying only six pounds of water and camera equipment.

    #3 I am planning on riding the White Rim Trail in Canyonlands National Park, a 108-mile route that takes about twenty-four hours to complete. I am hoping to carry fifteen pounds and complete the loop in under twenty-four hours.

    #4 I had the impression that I was watching the ongoing birth of a landscape, as if I were standing on the rim of an exploding caldera. The vista made me realize how scarce and delicate life is, how insignificant we are compared to the forces of nature and the dimensions of space.
