Can’t think of a better book to reach my 2024 reading challenge goal. Took my time with this book to savour each story. I was, and still am, a fan of the Dirtbag Diaries podcast. Reading these stories felt like an extended version of it. More epic outdoor adventure stories! Highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys going on outdoor adventures, or just reading about them from the comfort of your own home. It’s a book I’ll keep coming back to for years to come. 10/10 for sure!
