Emily Halnon | In Conversation with Peter Bromka

A riveting narrative of love and loss, grief and joy, as one woman embarks on a quest for a record on the Pacific Crest Trail. To the Gorge takes the reader through those 7 days, 19 hours, and 23 minutes, covering nearly 60 miles a day on foot over mountainous terrain, and battling all the issues that could arise during such a monstrous undertaking.

Interwoven with Halnon's eight-day effort are her remembrances from her mother's life and death, exploring the complicated experience of grief — and what shines through it.
