Philip Kramer is a photographer and writer based in Washington State. He's never won any awards but he has walked thousands and thousands of miles while occasionally daydreaming of winning awards. His first book, Hiking the Pacific Crest Trail: Northern California, is a hiking guidebook to one of the finest long-distance trails in the world. Philip hiked the entire PCT from Mexico to Canada in 2013 and then traversed the Northern California section about three times, which makes him an expert, right? www.philipkramer.com
