One of the aims of his journey is to raise money for three charities caring for the homeless. The National Coalition for the Homeless in the United States Raising the Roof in Canada Andrew's plan is to walk on his own the entire length of the Rocky Mountains. The Mexican border was the start, Denali National Park in Alaska is to be the finish, and in between lies roughly 9,600 kilometres of wilderness walking up North America's high spine. Andrew began the journey on April 1st 2000, covering a third of the distance before forest fires blocked his route. He is skiing and walking the final 6,400 kilometres, all the while raising awareness and needed funds for homelessness.
Success is far from certain, and therein lies the challenge.
