Signposts and Junctions is a collection of more than forty personal
memoirs and travels from Laudizen King. Spanning a period of fifty years,
these stories encompass a diverse array of emotions and experiences: from
the days of childhood innocence to the jungles of Vietnam, from the White
Mountains of New Hampshire to the Appalachian Trail in Georgia, from the
beaches of Nantucket to the deserts and mountains of California. Travel with
the author as he revisits two close encounters with death in the Cabinet
Mountains of Montana, remembers a motorcycle accident in Massachusetts, and
makes two attempts on the highest mountain summit in Southern California.
Also in this collection are nine of the author's favorite stories and travels
that celebrate the years he spent camping and exploring in the White
Mountains of New Hampshire: ‘My AMC White Mountain Guides’, ‘Out of the
Fog’, ‘Red Flannel Hash’, and more. From a wild night of revelry (‘Through
the Past Darkly with Sven Saws and Candle Lanterns’), to the challenges
presented by a May blizzard (‘Mt Garfield Dream’), and in the simple joys of
making camp alone at night in the driving rain (‘May Camp’), Laudizen King
reveals his affection and respect for the White Mountains and shows us that
every moment spent doing the things we love is something to be cherished and
enjoyed.
