Crossing Divides is the story of a young couple's heroic struggle with cancer and their 800-mile hike across Montana's Continental Divide. The hike provides an opportunity for metaphorical comparisons between perseverance and fighting cancer. Scott and Kate face their challenges - from chemotherapy to grizzly bears - with spirit, resolve, and a unified front. This celebration of the precious, unpredictable nature of human life and wild places illustrates the courage it takes to put one foot in front of the other - without knowing whether peace or danger lies around the next bend.
