  • "OUT THERE" is an extraordinary adventure along Canada's Great Divide Trail, a 1200km long wilderness route through the heart of the Canadian Rockies. This outdoor film showcases the beauty and challenges of one of the world's most pristine and remote trails.
    The film follows a young couple, Kodak & Cinnamon, as they embark on an epic journey through the rugged Canadian Rockies. Along the way, they face unpredictable weather conditions, treacherous river crossings, and wildlife - from grizzly bears to wolves and pikas. The documentary also explores the origins of the Great Divide Trail and details the challenges of building and maintaining a long, mountainous route.

    I'm a pro videographer, went to school for visual anthropology, and a mountain guide. If you didn't know this already, you have a career in filmmaking or doc making. This is an outstanding production on your part, especially given that you were doing one of the most challenging thru hikes. The authenticity, storytelling, cinematography are professional. And any company/project would be lucky to have you. I'm sure you're just planning out your next amazing trail, but if you ever felt like working professionally in this industry--you'd be welcome with open arms! Congrats on an amazing life experience and a beautiful film to be proud of. Thank you for sharing this with the world! So cool to see the Durstons on here too!

    I have such respect for back country hikers. Far different and 100x more difficult than walking European Caminos ( my experience)
    I have huge gratitude for the GDT Trail Managers Group and all the Volunteers who spend time clearing and maintaining this trail. Well done!
    Incredibly inspiring.

    This was one of the most awesome hiking films I have watched. I really miss the days when I was younger and spending days hiking the Rockies. This film brings back those memories. My wife and I still live and hike in the Colorado Rockies. We don't do the long hikes anymore. After 65 years of hiking, I am still in awe of the beauty of nature. I am 74 and my wife is 70 and we still plan on hiking for many, many more years. As for you two, never stop...

    This is the most beautiful hiking movie / video I have ever seen. I had no idea the GDT was so insane - in its beauty and its challenges and the wilderness of it, no roads etc. I knew that T and Dan had yo-yo’d it but didn’t get the scope or understand it (nice surprise to see them by the way, they have built a global community and I use their tents and they’re just so darn nice!)
    You’re both a joy to watch, cinnamon is a treasure. Really blown away by the production values. What more can I say. Except: 🤩 😍 🏆 🙏

You make us remember how such a precious planet we're living on to discover.. Thank you Kodak and merci Cinnamon; your humble endurance means a lot.

After excitedly sharing stories and congratulations, I shared some food and you carried on. Thanks for taking me back to trail. Since I finished my own solo GDT thru hike from Waterton to Kakwa in 2021, I have repeatedly gone back to do sections. I was even back on section B around the Cataract Creek area last week. I am a hiking guide and work along the trail a lot. It's a beautiful route no matter how u hike it. It was great to me we you both and one encounter I've not forgotten. Happy adventures!

    Ryan and Ilse, I watch a lot of videos, this for work, learning, and pleasure. And I can say that I fast forward all of them....most of the time. Your video is one of maybe 7 or 8 I've watched from start till the end since the last 3 months.. And it's the only one that long. Your story (Kodak & Cinnamon) is very unique, just like in a fairy tale. And you two went through some rough hikes over those 1200km. But, you can have the best fairy tale history and went through amazing places, that if you don't have a real talent at story telling, and editing, then....it'll remain just a so-so video among millions on the Web. We see this every day on TH-cam. In your case, you have it all. Someone, somewhere, for whatever reason blessed you two in meeting each other and with an amazing talent. You two are not only GREAT people, but you're also an inspiration.
    Now, about a career in film making. It's easy... Just take it as a CDT thru-hike and everything will be fine: Plan, but not too much, enjoy your time together, never abandon no mater what life is throwing at you, be inspired, keep taking care of each other, and always be on the lookout for technology and how to edit better all the time. You have a talent at story telling and that... you don't learn at school. Well...yes yo do, but there's a big difference between someone going school-like and someone with a natural talent.
    Take care, and may you two stay together until the end of times. It's important! Because if you don't, then we'll have to close the CDT... ;)

    It's hard enough to hike the challenging terrain that Kodak & Cinnamon did, add in the amazing thoughtful detail of cinematography. The extra equipment, camera shots, guest interviews, and planning requires so much extra time.

    Hey Kodak, i just started watching your video but it looks like you are having the time of your life! I only met you breafly but i could tell that you were a true adventurer. I retired back in 2020 from 40 years of shiftwork in a steel mill. I keep myself busy walking, running, and biking. Take care my friend. I hope to see you and your wife again!.

      Hi Buddy! Thank you, you’ve been there from the very first video in Dravo Cemetery! My grandfather worked in a mill as well as some of my cousins. My grandfather was a machinist and I’ll always remember the wooden clogs to keep his shoes from melting. I just started work as a green keeper on a golf course in Belgium. I hope to make it back to Pittsburgh in the next year or two. I’ll introduce you two! Maybe ride around the point or something. Take care and Happy Thanksgiving!

    Beautiful documentary and a wonderful way to share your stories of this trail. Thank you for sharing your journey. I am always grateful to be so close to the Canadian Rockies. Hiking and camping out there brings me back to myself and peace unlike any other. I encourage people to connect with nature to connect with themselves. And to enjoy the great outdoors! Anyway, now my next step is to share this video. 🎉☺️ Share share share! 🤩✨

    Brilliant documentary. I have hiked many of the southern trails through the years. The animals just after 15:00 are bighorn sheep, if anybody wonders. I was surprised at how burnt out the Akamina trail is, I hiked it before the great fire. Huckleberries just after 43:30. I'm too old to hike the GDT now, thanks for the vicarious experience.

    Kodak & Cinnamon, This is one of those experiences that defies words...though, of course, we have to try : ) First off, THANK YOU!! for the profound inspiration. The combination of Nature at Her finest with both of your wonderful energy and presence filled me with awe, tears, and grinning for an hour and nineteen minutes...and counting : ) My wife and I are just back from a month of trekking in Nepal (HIGHLY RECOMMEND!) and looking for our next great adventure. GDT??? Perhaps...but what I do know is...I've just discovered two new heroes. You two are AWESOME! May you continue to engage Life with such authenticity, perseverance, reverence and sense of adventure (those gnarly alternate routes!!)...and so much more. Here's to fellow enthusiasts : )

Your cinematography, storytelling and both your senses of humour and personalities make this a standout doc and I look forward to seeing more from you guys. Hopefully this will inspire more people to become involved in the maintenance and preservation of this Great Difficult Trail!

I appreciate your work, it has allowed me to grow my interest in exploring this beautiful world! Wishing you all the best!!
