"Life on the Loose, My Journey from Suburban Housewife to Outdoor Guide recounts a thirty-two-year adventure with Venture West as my customers and I traveled the world with backpacks, canoes, and kayaks. This was a risky business with an unexpected learning curve, from the first backpacking trip to Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore to the final adventure in Zion National Park. I experienced emotions from pure joy to sheer terror as I navigated the unknown and took paying customers along for the ride. Once in Capitol Reef National Park, I led a group seven miles in the wrong direction. When I realized we had less then an hour of daylight left, I put on my best phony smile and carried on. It was my job" -- summary from www.lifeontheloose.com
