Backpacking Oregon: From River Valleys to Mountain Meadows
Backpacking Oregon: From River Valleys to Mountain Meadows
Becky Ohlsen is a freelance writer based in Portland, Oregon, and Rye, Colorado. She writes about travel and outdoor adventures, usually in places where it rains a lot: Sweden, Oregon, Washington. She can barely ride a bicycle but has crossed the US by motorcycle more than once. She likes new camping gear, old kung fu movies, and books about sentences.
Becky is the author of several books, including Backpacking Oregon, Best Tent Camping: Oregon, One Night Wilderness: Portland, and Walking Portland. Between assignments, she continues to peck away at a book about motorcycles and the allure of risk.
Becky spends a lot of time roaming around. For a few years she raced a vintage Honda 175 at Portland International Raceway (very slowly). She has a probably ill-advised master's degree in journalism from NYU's Cultural Reporting and Criticism program and has occasionally taught journalism. A recovering copy editor, Becky will debate points of grammar with anyone, anytime.
Douglas Lorain moved with his family to the Pacific Northwest in 1969, and he has been obsessively hitting the trails of his home region ever since. Spurred by an unquenchable thirst for new trails to explore and a great enthusiasm for backpacking, he has hiked more than 30,000 miles through every corner of the American Northwest and many thousands more in other western states and Canadian provinces. Despite a history that includes being bitten by a rattlesnake, being shot at by a hunter, being charged by grizzly bears (twice!), and donating gallons of blood to mosquitoes, Douglas claims that he wouldn't trade one moment of it because he has also been blessed to see some of the most beautiful scenery on Earth.
His other books for Wilderness Press include Backpacking Idaho, Backpacking Washington, Backpacking Wyoming, One Best Hike: Mount Rainier's Wonderland Trail, One Night Wilderness: Portland, and Top Trails: Olympic National Park & Vicinity.
Douglas is a photographer and recipient of the National Outdoor Book Award. His photographs have appeared in numerous magazines, calendars, and books.
