Watch as Liam and I embark on our most ambitious backpacking trip yet, The Rockies Expedition. Section C of the GDT was close to home, and it visited a lot of areas where we had spent our last few years hiking and skiing. The Great Divide Trail made for an excellent send off from high school as we each head off to university this fall. One last epic high school adventure, and it really was epic.

Day 1: 
- Start from the Ottertail River Trailhead (which we didn't, we missed it and started at a bridge over the river and had to bushwack to find the trail)
- Hike 14.4km SE from the trailhead to McArthur Creek Campground in Yoho National Park
- Set up camp (more like borrow camp) and dive into the dehydrated meals!
