Looks like a wonderful trail Josh, so beautiful and interesting about the native American connection.

It's interesting to learn about the progression of the route. It shows that the Indigenous peoples knew the bests ways to get around, and that those who came after them used the very same ways because they were so efficient rather than having to blaze a new route.

Never heard of this trail before. Your voiceover game is the best, sounds so natural. I couldn’t imagine have to go through these routes back in the day. Oh wow, it literally sunk.

Thank you! The voice overs are some of my favorite parts of the editing process. The whole trek is wild to think about. Taking a boat or barge down the river, dropping it off, and then having to return on foot. People were brave and tough back then!

That's a really long trail! I am sure the entire thing has so much history!

[@DestinationEarth]

The amount of people that have used this trail throughout history is very interesting! It was neat to see the trail still exists in this capacity (in spots) and that the whole thing wasn't replaced with modern roads.

Wow that is a long trail and back in the day, the people who used this trail must have been a real tough breed. Sounded a dangerous trail as well as a tough on too, cheers Alan

100%! It's not enough to have to walk all that way back, but to worry about whether you would be robbed along the way would only add to the stress of the trip.
