Answer:

Cheryl Strayed told lie to the skiers for being lost because if she would have said that she is lost, they would have rescued her only to end her trail.

Explanation:

'Wild' is a memoir written by Cheryl Strayed of her hiking a thousand miles journey from Pacific Crest Trail to Washington State. She took the route from Pacific Crest Trail to the Mojave Desert through California and Oregon to Washinton State. She completed her journey in ninety-four days.

<u>In her book, titled 'Wild' she said that when she was on the Pacific Crest Trail, a group of three skiers asked her if she is lost, not knowing anything about hiking, Strayed still lied to them that she was not lost. She told them a lie because if she would have told them that she is lost, they would have rescued her and she would not have been able to continue her trail.</u>
