Title

Northwest Hiker presents Hiking in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, and Montana

Description

Adopted by a family who moved me from my birth state of Wisconsin to the Pacific Northwest when I was only three, placed me in the middle of some of the most beautiful landscape on earth. At the young age of six I talked my neighbor friend into climbing a mountain just a mile from where we lived. Of course the mountain was only a hill, but you get the idea. I was born to hike. It's in my blood. Only the constraints of life of a business manager keep me off the trail.

In February of 2000, I decided to create a web site that would bring to one place all the useful information that a hiker might need for planning an outdoor adventure. I not only wanted trail information, but weather, road conditions, and where possible, web-cams to show us what the weather is like at a place close to a hiker's area of interest. Then I decided to put photos of hikes on the web site. I have always felt that a picture is worth a 1000 words, and I found lots of web sites with lots of words, but very few pictures. Also, I was overcome with the need to create a poem that kinda definds how I feel when I'm out there hiking by myself.

Then, because of the 9/11/01 event in our country, I found myself unemployed and with too much time on my hands. So I decided to create Virtual Hike CDs.
