At age sixty-seven, Colin Fletcher, the guru of backpacking in America, undertook a rigorous six-month raft expedition down the full length of the Colorado River--alone. He needed "something to pare the fat off my soul...to make me grateful, again, for being alive." The 1,700 miles between the Colorado's source in Wyoming and its conclusion at Mexico's Gulf of California contain some of the most spectacular vistas on earth, and Fletcher is the ideal guide for the terrain. As his privileged companions, we travel to places like Disaster Falls and Desolation Canyon, observe beaver and elk, experience sandstorms and whitewater rapids, and share Fletcher's thoughts on the human race, the environment, and the joys of solitude.

Adventure, yes. Adventure writing no. This was an introspective look at the adventure of rafting down the Colorado River. Those of us who are in the later years of our outdoor opportunities will understand how Fletcher takes a train of thought from the River to his life experiences. It seemed to me that the book itself was divided into three parts. The first part was from the source to Lake Powell with an emphasis on quite a bit of philosophy. The second part was the Grand Canyon with an emphasis on memories and running the rapids. The third part was Lake Mead to the Pacific Ocean with an different, darker emphasis to his philosophy. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and recommend it to people who aren't after adventure narratives, but want more philosophic ideas with their adventure.
