3,000 Miles Through the American Wilderness: Northbound Along the Continental Divide Trail

What does it take to walk 3,000 miles across the spine of America? In this cinematic documentary, we journey Northbound along the Continental Divide Trail (CDT), from the deserts of New Mexico to the jagged peaks of Canada. 7 years ago I hiked the Pacific Crest Trail and this had been one of the experiences I had enjoyed most in life. When I came back and returned to a "normal" life full of screens, I promised myself I would go back on a 5 month journey through the wild at one point. I am a nerd and I enjoy the "screen" but I also like wild spaces and simple pleasures. As everything in life, I believe there needs to be a balance. (PCT doc available here:    • 4,270 kms - A Pacific Crest Trail Documentary  ) 7 years later, here I am, in the company of "Green pea" this time. We both quit our jobs in Nairobi, Kenya and packed a bag to a country where I had such fond memories of its nature and its people despite what can be seen in the news nowadays. This is the story of our 150+ day journey through the most beautiful and brutal wilderness in the USA—from the desert of New Mexico, through the jagged peaks of Colorado, the wild nature of Wyoming and the grizzlies of Montana to finally reach Canada. I am not sponsored and I don't monetize this video. I am also probably not going to release anything else for some time but you're welcome to subscribe if you ever want a notification from a far off project (maybe 7 years... who knows).
