Dan Brett is a certified wilderness fool. Originally from the Midwest, he was drawn west by the high, lonely call of mountain passes and untamed places. He has worked as a trail crew volunteer in Grand Canyon National Park and Redwood Nation Park (where he met his wife) and actually got paid to hike around and fix trails in Idaho Panhandle, Inyo, Six Rivers, and Klamath National Forests. When not hiking or writing, he makes music, works wood, builds things, is active politically and environmentally, reads a lot, and generally wishes there were more hours in the day. His articles have appeared in Backpacker, Country Back Roads, and California Blacksmith. He is also the author of Hike America: Northern California (2000 Globe Pequot). Dan lives in Humboldt County with his wife, Mirjam
