- Trek follows a young Mormon teenager named Tom and his friends on their handcart journey. Along the way they try to smuggle in unsanctioned food, battle sibling rivalry, encounter a "special ops" Young Men's leader, match wits with a twinkie-loving skunk, and ponder doctrinal brain teasers like, "Do general Authorities go to PG-13 movies?" But, when they encounter unexpected trouble, their faith is tested much like their pioneer ancestors.
- This short documentary film was produced for the purpose of flying with the Skydive Utah, LLC, to allow Brennan Callan to visit a field where his deceased friend and that friend's family used to fly from. They helped Callan to connect to his memories of his friend and better understand his friend's life and his passion for aviation, which eventually and tragically took Callan's friend's life (at a different field). The skydivers in this film, as did his dear friend, all appreciate and respect that aviation is unforgiving, but they pursue it anyway. Just like so many pilots from Salt Lake City, Callan's friend and other pilots in his family, used the Tooele Airport (KTVY) to practice their skills. So only positive memories and recollections were affiliated with this field for them and for Callan. The "Skydive Utah" folks were professional, fun, and respectful of Callan's attempts to connect with his deceased friend while riding along on two flights with them. As an Aeronautical Scientist himself, Callan felt they ran a safe operation. While Callan did not jump with them, riding along with them made him feel familiar and comfortable with their operations.
