      It was a blast following along during your CDT hike that you documented so well on made-in-england.org
      I can't wait for New Zealand. Good Luck!

      Well worth it to me - I got that much enjoyment out of your CDT film, maybe more than my own photos!

      Backing another KS project - thought I'd take a look through what else was on here in the film section. We're originally from NZ, so this caught my eye - props to you both, this sounds like a mountainous effort.

      Have family along the way if that'd yelp you out at all. Let me know, I might be able to swindle you transport/beds if needed/helpful...

      Good luck.
      Matt

Funding Unsuccessful

This project reached the deadline without achieving its funding goal on March 14, 2010.

Pledge $10 or more

5 Backers

Donate $10 and I'll mail you all the route maps I’ve been making, maybe to use on your own hike or for research. All the maps will also be freely downloadable from my site (when I finish them) if you want to save me the postage costs :)

Pledge $25 or more

6 Backers

Donate $25 and I'll mail you the finished DVD once we return and edit it, plus all the maps on a separate disc. Again the video will also be uploaded to my website where you could watch it for free.

Pledge $50 or more

9 Backers

Donate $50 and you'll get all the above plus a beautifully screen printed A2 poster of the route, maybe some sort of date planner type thing. Probably will make this when I get back and have a bit more experience of the route and interesting alternates.

Pledge $100 or more

3 Backers

Donate $100 and you'll get all of the above plus I’ll leave your name (obviously nothing permanent) along the route somewhere, write it out in rocks, draw it on a sandy beach, piss it into snow, whatever! Promise to do something interesting, blog about you and then send you the hi-res photo.

Pledge $1,000 or more

Ha ha, this is the big one and it was Nicky's idea so unsurprisingly involves me making a total arse of myself.. but It could be pretty funny so - donate $1000 or more then at the end of each month you decide what I have to do with my facial hair.. It's a bit of a tradition that you grow your beard on a thru-hike, but I'm giving you the chance to style it for me - Big Lamb chop side burns, down to the moustache, shave half off vertically... (Only 5 available, 1 each month).
