Book excerpt: 85 fun and interesting hikes chosen for children ages 10 and under Most outings are less than 5 miles and have less than 1000 feet of elevation gain Includes activities to keep kids engaged on the trail The mother of three young children, Kathy Schrenk formed a social media group for parents who wanted to join her and her kids on hikes around St. Louis. A few years later, that group has nearly 2000 active members. Kathy clearly tapped into an interest and enthusiasm for family hiking, which she has now captured in her new book Best Hikes with Kids: St. Louis & Beyond. The St. Louis guide is divided into four sections: in and around the city of St. Louis; destinations in nearby Illinois; trails in northwest St. Louis County; and locales farther south, including a variety of state parks and conservation areas. The hike descriptions point out things of interest to kids such as unique geology (caves and sinkholes), places for a quick splash in a creek, or spots to go on the hunt for lizards. Parents will appreciate cautions about sharp drop-offs or tips for potty time on the trail. Other features of the guide include: Tips and strategies for hiking with kids—how to motivate them, what’s appropriate for different ages, sidebars with games, nature facts, and more Direct and accurate driving directions and notes on public transit options where available “Best of” lists highlight groups of top 5 hikes with special features to help parents select trips their kids will enjoy Access details including GPS trailhead coordinates and info on permits, fees, and other info Notes about barrier-free or ADA-accessible trails and suitability for jogging strollers Full color photos throughout and detailed maps

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carrying only basic camping equipment and a collection of the world's great spiritual writings, Belden C. Lane embarks on solitary spiritual treks through the Ozarks and across the American Southwest. For companions, he has only such teachers as Rumi, John of the Cross, Hildegard of Bingen, Dag Hammarskjöld, and Thomas Merton, and as he walks, he engages their writings with the natural wonders he encounters--Bell Mountain Wilderness with Søren Kierkegaard, Moonshine Hollow with Thich Nhat Hanh--demonstrating how being alone in the wild opens a rare view onto one's interior landscape, and how the saints' writings reveal the divine in nature. The discipline of backpacking, Lane shows, is a metaphor for a spiritual journey. Just as the wilderness offered revelations to the early Desert Christians, backpacking hones crucial spiritual skills: paying attention, traveling light, practicing silence, and exercising wonder. Lane engages the practice not only with a wide range of spiritual writings--Celtic, Catholic, Protestant, Buddhist, Hindu, and Sufi Muslim--but with the fascination of other lovers of the backcountry, from John Muir and Ed Abbey to Bill Plotkin and Cheryl Strayed. In this intimate and down-to-earth narrative, backpacking is shown to be a spiritual practice that allows the discovery of God amidst the beauty and unexpected terrors of nature. Adoration, Lane suggests, is the most appropriate human response to what we cannot explain, but have nonetheless learned to love. An enchanting narrative for Christians of all denominations, Backpacking with the Saints is an inspiring exploration of how solitude, simplicity, and mindfulness are illuminated and encouraged by the discipline of backcountry wandering, and of how the wilderness itself becomes a way of knowing-an ecology of the soul.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Katy Trail is a monument to the pioneer spirit and US westward expansion, and a testament to Missourians' love for their parks and outdoor spaces. Katy Trail: A Guided Tour through History is the guide every trail user needs to explore the trail and appreciate the epic role the corridor plays in the history of the state and the nation. Much of the Katy Trail parallels the Missouri River, placing trail users squarely in the footsteps of Daniel Boone's late-in-life frontier explorations and the first stretch of the Lewis and Clark expedition. The first rails of the MKT - or Missouri-Kansas-Texas - Railroad were laid in the 1860s, but more than a century later, when the MKT owners were set to retire the rail line, cyclists and preservationists conceived the country's longest Rails to Trails project, now stretching 237 miles. Get insider tips on each section such as Defiance to Machens (34 miles), including detailed directions, tips for where to dine, and notable sights along the way. You'll even learn how much shade the trail provides so you'll know how much sunscreen to pack. Or plan your day based on a themed itinerary like a Family Outing or Historic Foray. Local author and avid hiker and cyclist Kathy Schrenk is your personal trail guide on these paths she's traversed many times over. Ride the Katy with her guide in your back pocket to show you the way to enjoy centuries of history along miles of scenic river country.

Its passion for historic preservation makes nearly every neighborhood a joy to walk through, and Kirkwood: A Walk through History provides the quintessential guide of maximizing a stroll through its most interesting spots.

Some of the walks in this book even allow the curious history buff to learn unvarnished tales of the not-so-rosy past as well. Find little-known facts and unexpected stories in Kirkwood's busiest neighborhoods like downtown and the streets around Kirkwood Park. Then get the inside scoop on the less polished side of Kirkwood history in neighborhoods like Meacham Park and Meramec Highlands. You'll see the site of a great 1920s train wreck and contemplate one of the oldest cemeteries for Black Americans west of the Mississippi River. Walk alongside local author Kathy Schrenk as she shows off the best way to explore her hometown of Kirkwood.
