Source of title:

Title based on the following caption from the NFB Photo Story: Every September Floyd "Panhandle" Phillips leaves his isolated ranch in central British Columbia on his annual cattle drive which will take him over mountains and swamps, across rivers and countless brooks, in all kinds of weather on the strenuous 200-mile trek eastwards to Quesnel. It is believed to be the longest, toughest beef drive in North America. But Phillips and his family take the journey in stride for it is one of their rare opportunities to see something of the world Beyond their ranch which has been called the most inaccessible in Canada.
