Wild (2014) is a movie adaptation of the book Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail by Cheryl Strayed, where she depicted her struggles and solo hiking journey.

Strayed hiked a total of 1,100 miles in 94 days. The trip was meant to help her cope with her mother's death and the subsequent drug use. And next to the self-discovery, Strayed gained some more practical knowledge, such as the fact that Recreational Equipment would send her replacement shoes if she lost her pair, so when one of her boots took a tumble down a cliff (after mangling six of her toes because the shoe size was too small), she ordered new boots immediately to mediate the damage done to her feet.
