Editing Dick Price (section)

=== Hiking practice ===
Price would frequently hike the trails of the [[Santa Lucia Range]], both for pleasure and for relief from the pressures of running Esalen Institute. This became a part of his process. [[Hiking]] was often a solitary practice for him, although he regularly took other people along. Sometimes he worked with them while hiking, doing Gestalt sessions that would turn out to be quite moving.{{cn|date=April 2024}}

Steven Harper was one of Price's close friends<ref name=kripalno/> and hiking partners at Esalen. Harper became a permanent resident of Big Sur and a leader of wilderness process groups at Esalen. After Price's death, Harper was also able to secure the official naming of two geographic features for Price. A very prominent ridge behind Esalen is now called Price Ridge, and a trail is named Price-Gagarin Trail after Price and his friend Andrew Gagarin.<ref>''Monterey County Place Names'', published by Monterey County, California, p. 422.</ref>
