About the Book
The Unseen walking guidebook series challenes you, the walker, to look beneath
the surface of the landscape. The books offer basic practical and navigational
information, but are also the starting point for seeing more than the typical or
getting something special out of each walk. The books offer subtle cues that
encourage a unique experience. Currently available are Portland Companion
Walks and Inside the Brambles (one walk in the Oakland Hills).
About the Authors
Creator and Designer, Briar Levit has been a walker as long as she can remember.
It started with parents and grandparents in California, but the habit has grown
to include so many more people and places who are important to her. When not
walking, she's running BriarMade, her small design business; teaching design at
Portland State University; and looking for other creative mischief to get in to on
her own and with her friends.
Co-writer, Miriam Wolf, has great memories of hiking the trails around San
Francisco and Portland with friends and her daughter, Sage. She is studying for a
degree in Health Studies at PSU and writes on the topic of fitness for women over 40 at www.gimme-strength.blogspot.com. She aspires to a pub-to-pub walking
tour of England.
