Jeff Mitchell was born and raised in northeast Pennsylvania and resides near Tunkhannock. When not getting lost in the woods or exploring a creek to see where it goes, Jeff is the District Attorney of Wyoming County. He is the author of five titles: "Hiking the Endless Mountains", "Backpacking Pennsylvania", "Hiking the Allegheny National Forest", "Paddling Pennsylvania", and "Backpacking New York". These books reveal the surprising, and often forgotten, beauty that lies in our backyards.
