Tramping Through Mexico and Other Adventures

By Bill McLaughlin

Swedish she-devils, ex-pat anarchists, belligerent cows, and run-ins with the Mexican army-they're all here in Tramping Through Mexico, a lighthearted yet thoughtful exploration of Baja California and the Copper Canyon region of northern Mexico.Tramping Through Mexico takes readers on a three-month backpacking adventure through some of Mexico's most outstanding natural wonders. Highlights of the trip include an up-close visit with some friendly but endangered California gray whales, a ride on the world renowned Copper Canyon train line, and finally, wilderness camping among the peaceful Tarahumara of the Sierra Madre.In addition to the dramatic scenery and quirky characters, the fast-paced narrative is supplemented with bits of Mexican folk songs, poems, and historical excerpts.This volume of Tramping Through Mexico also contains four other solo adventures including a four-month bicycle tour through Atlantic Canada to the coast of Labrador; an 11-day canoe trip along the Everglades Wilderness Waterway; a five-month bicycle tour across America; and a five-week kayak journey down the entire length of the Delaware River.
