After dominating the Washington BDR trail system at the end of June, we set our sights on the biggest Backcountry Discovery Route on the map, Idaho! We traveled over 1,500 miles from Mountain Home, Idaho to Jarbidge, NV and onto the Canadian border! This is a reunion of all the guys from the trip, our experiences, laughter and more! This is an EPIC episode of EPIC length covering an EPIC adventure!
