In May 2015, a young Mexican guy will set out on his lengthy trip to raise awareness and finances for the endangered mountain gorillas. He plans to walk along the Pacific Crest Trail from Mexico to northern Canada. As part of his charitable work with the Gorilla Organization, he is taking these measures to ensure the survival of the endangered giant mountain gorillas.

We now know that there are just 880 mountain gorillas in the whole planet, as revealed by a 2014 census. Half of these mountain gorillas call Bwindi Impenetrable National Park home, while the other half split their time between Rwanda’s Volcanoes National Park and the Democratic Republic of the Congo’s Vulunga Volcanoes.

Kryan hopes to raise one hundred thousand pounds sterling via this walk to combat issues affecting mountain gorillas, such as poaching and the destruction of their natural habitats.

If Kryan sticks to his daily goal of 25 miles, he would cover the distance of 6.5 times the length of England in only four months. He will begin in the scorching Mojave Desert close to the Mexican border and conclude 150 days later in Canada after traversing the Cascade and Sierra Nevada mountain ranges. On his way to summit Mount Whitney, the highest peak in the United States outside of Alaska at 14,000 feet, he will traverse 25 national forests and 7 national parks.

No amount will be too little to contribute to our one-of-a-kind effort to protect mountain gorillas. The sale of gorilla permits at Uganda’s Bwindi Impenetrable National Park and Mgahinga National Park goes directly toward the conservation of mountain gorillas, so your visit there may have a similar impact. The Uganda Wildlife Authority will recognize your achievements with a certificate. Gorilla permits are available for purchase at a discounted rate of USD 350.00 during the months of April, May, and November.
