A WALK IN THE CLOUDS
KEV REYNOLDS
Kev Reynolds has spent over 50 years walking and trekking in some of the worlds greatest mountain ranges.
In that time he has written over 40 guidebooks detailing his journeys and has inspired thousands of others to follow in his footsteps and explore these beautiful areas of the world.
He now shares his experiences in this compilation of short stories and observations in turn humorous, tragic, exciting and insightful. While the tales take readers around the world from the Alps to the Himalaya, and to mountains as far flung as Morocco and Peru, Kevs excitement for the mountain journey always shines through. The stories are a celebration of wild nature, but also of friends and strangers met along the way, and of those vivid, intense moments of experience that remain with us for years.
All who love mountains will be inspired by Kevs tales from a life lived to the full, and celebrate it with him.
