The Route Makers - Episode 4: The Eraser and the Gift

The Route Makers Episode 4: Kevin "The Animal" Koski, Donovan "Iceman" Rice, Rue McKenrick, and Wesley "Megaman" Tils on what happens to a route after the map is drawn— the Great Colorado Route, the Four Corners Loop, and the American Perimeter Trail, and the years of correcting, erasing, and handing them off.

A route doesn't end when the maker finishes walking it. That's when the real work starts. This episode is about the eraser and the gift: how a line keeps changing after its maker is gone, and the hardest lesson every route maker learns — that the line was never really theirs to keep. Settle in for the fourth episode of our documentary series.
