Living Above the Clouds Richard W Gourash

From a young boy growing up on the outskirts of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Richard W. Gourash's travels have taken him from plains to mountaintops, climbing some of the many steep ranges in North America. He's been through the Western United States, Alaska, and Northern Canada-through some of the most rugged mountains of the northern hemisphere. In Living Above the Clouds, he shares a collection of adventure short stories that detail his excursions to the most extreme, dangerous, and remote situations in the world. From his first western big game trip to Colorado to hunt elk and mule deer, to looking for Fannin rams in the Yukon Territory, Gourash sketches the details and adds vivid descriptions to paint a visual as he marches through time. The narratives included in Living Above the Clouds conveys Gourash's deep passion for the outdoors and the challenges nature presents. It inspires others to go the extra mile, climb higher, and take on challenges, to realize their own dreams of adventure.
