Over the course of nine summers accompanied by over two dozen friends, colleagues, acquaintances and sons ( a few on each odyssey), Al rode from Canada to Mexico, journaling along the way. That journal is now available for your enjoyment. As you read Riding the Divide, you also will experience the majesty and beauty of God's creation and gain an understanding of why Al's dream did not flicker through the years.

Riding the Divide will also give you a firsthand look as what it is like to pack horses each morning and to find your way without a guide. You will become part of the banter among friends and will get to know the real Al Quie, who honestly reveals his loves, frustrations, struggles, strengths, weaknesses and quirks all the while remaining a man who strongly follows after Christ.
