I just finished watching a great DVD by Lawton "Disco" Grinter, called: "The Walkumentary - Southbound on the CTD". As the title implies, it is a documentary of Disco's 2006 thru hike of the Continental Divide Trail. Disco provides the DVD for free at his website: The Walkumentary Website

The DVD is very well done - professional quality. It was filmed by thru-hikers for thru-hikers . . . or for anyone interested in hiking all or part of the CDT. I hope Disco produces future projects of this type. Although he will send the DVDs for free, or you can download it for free, I found the quality of the DVD and the enjoyment of it to be worth a donation.

This time of year, when backpacking season is still many months off for me, watching a DVD like this is exactly what I enjoy! Carol

It looks like I have something else to distract me from homework. Thanks for the link. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I have seen these names on trail journals, now I can put faces with names. It is like they are real people, not just digital hallucinations. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />
