Where's the Next Shelter is a new book written by a 2014 thru hiker named Green Giant (Gary Sizer). I know there is a multitude of books, movies and youtube series about hiking the AT and I have read/watched many of them. But this story stands out from the others. Bill Bryson aint got nuthin on Gary Sizer! Green Giant not only has a knack for transporting the reader in great detail along his journey while keeping an interesting perspective and comical edge but he does an excellent job of focusing on one of the most important aspects of the AT; the social experience.

I had the pleasure of sharing the trail with Green Giant (and few of the other characters from this journey) for a week around the NOC last year. He is not only an awesome person but a great writer as well. He has not asked me to endorse his book or blog, although I did ask his permission before making this post. I just want people to know about the book! I encourage everyone to read it!

Green Giant will be on a "mini tour" around the SouthEast talking about his book and providing a clinic called "nuts and bolts". Keep in touch with his blog if interested in attending one of the clinics! Congrats Green Giant on your accomplishments!
