As I read Brandon Wilson's account in "Over the Top & Back Again" I enjoyed vicariously all the excitement, danger and adventure Brandon and his wife, Cheryl, experienced as they traversed a new Hiking path called "The Via Alpine Trail." After experiencing what Brandon describes as "facing the scary sameness of so-called normal life" he was ready for a new challenge. Together the Wilson's made the decision to downsize their belongings and to burn their bridges behind them to follow the alpine trail.
