Читать книгу One Night Wilderness: Portland - Becky Ohlsen - Страница 7

Acknowledgments

First and foremost, I want to thank Douglas Lorain for putting together the first edition of this book, and the editors at Wilderness Press for commissioning me to update it. Working on One Night Wilderness: Portland was probably the most fun I’ve ever had researching an outdoors guidebook. As always, the editorial, production, and marketing teams at AdventureKEEN do a fantastic job of bringing these books into the world and making sure that people know about them.

Thanks also to my parents for taking us kids on backpacking trips at a very young age, and to all the friends since then who’ve accompanied me on various wilderness adventures (shout-outs to Paul, Maureen, and Molly). And thanks to everyone who works in the outdoors industry, from my fellow guidebook authors to the volunteers who build and maintain trails, the parks employees and forest rangers who share updates and information online or in person, and the many bloggers and backpackers who post trip reports—a great way to gather intel on trail status and (especially) road conditions before setting out on a hike.
