Paul Elliott works as a writer/editor and plays primarily as a social and solo hiker. He has been leading hikes year-round in the Washington metro area and beyond since 1990, most recently for the Sierra Club and Appalachian Mountain Club. His forte is getting people with a taste for adventure to sample the pleasures and surprises of the area's remarkable array of hiking opportunities. He discovered his hiking bone back in the late 1980s on a hike in DC's suburban parklands. Enjoying the physical exertion, as well as the vistas, wildflowers, and camaraderie, Paul's interest in hiking grew with each successive hike. Today, as an outdoorsman, hiking is Paul's chief outdoor avocation, and, as a writer, a vocation as well.Elliott, Paul is the author of '60 Hikes Within 60 Miles Washington, Dc', published 2002 under ISBN 9780897323338 and ISBN 0897323335.
