To Heights and Unto Depths: Letters from the Colorado Trail

• Memoir of a 500 mile hike of the Colorado trail 
• Personal account of Fr. John Nepil
• The physical challenges, glories and beauties he experienced
• Insights on how our Faith and the Colorado backcountry intersect
• Spiritual exploration to open your heart to God's love

This memoir chronicles Fr. John Nepil’s 500-mile thru-hike of the Colorado Trail in 2022, blending adventure with deep theological reflection. 

Accompanied by fellow hikers, priests, and young people, he explores how Catholic theology and the backcountry intersect, drawing insights from thinkers like Giussani, von Hildebrand, and Balthasar. Fr. Nepil presents the mountains as both a physical challenge and a privileged space for spiritual formation, where nature reveals the Incarnational depth of the Catholic faith. 

This book serves as a theological guide for Catholic outdoor enthusiasts and all who seek God in the grandeur of creation. It will inspire, bring you to reflection on the glories of God and the wonders of the natural world, and open your heart to what He has in store for you, how He continually seeks you, and the beauty He wants to bring to your own life.
