EPISODE #1 - The diary of our Great Divide Trail (GDT) adventure. The first episode is "Section A" which is from Waterton Park to Coleman Alberta. It was far harder than expected and more beautiful than imagined.
Dudley (Bruce Watts), Crusher (Chris Abbott) & Mango (Tracy Généreux) - and many new friends - thru-hiked the Great Divide Trail during the summer of 2021. 1100-ish crazy hard and wild kilometres from the Alberta/Montana international border (near Waterton), to Kakwa Provincial Park along the continental divide in the Canadian Rockies. Considered the "Wildest" Thru-Hike in North America - We agree!
This video is the 1st episode of a 7 part series we affectionately are calling the "GREAT DIVIDE TRAIL DIARIES" ... we will be uploading vids on this channel as they are completed (be patient... there are lots of personal summer adventures that keep us from the editing studio -- SUBSCRIBE SO YOU WON'T MISS THE CYBER ADVENTURE!
Special thanks to Chris Abbott (aka Crusher) and Tracy Généreux (aka Mango) and all our other new friends: Tyson, Arthur, Marylou, Shira, Richard, Glen, Noémie, Fran, Theresa, Paul, Nicole, Isla, Noah, and Munchie (woof woof)

FILMED COMPLETELY on an iPhone 11pro with no gimbals, external microphones, and a tripod was used 3 times (I now regret carrying the tripod for 900 km :) )
