Almost 200 miles into a journey to hike the length of the Grand Canyon, photographer Pete McBride and writer Kevin Fedarko find that winter has set in. The two face frigid temperatures, snow-obscured terrain, and dwindling food, but they soldier through-into the depths of the magnificent Olo Canyon.
Part two of a three-part series following photographer Pete McBride and writer Kevin Fedarko as they attempt to hike the length of the Grand Canyon, a feat few have accomplished, and explore the challenges that are threatening the future of this iconic national park.
Watch Part 1: A 650-Mile Challenge and Part 3: Thirst and Threats in the Godscape

The struggle these people go through just to make the world a better place for us to live in. #Respect
This hike is definitely not a walk in the park 😉
Love the canyon
Ojalá pudiera visitar ese sitio alguna vez kejej. Que pasada!
these videos are my favorite
i am jealous with US that have so many national park.
It's not National parks that are at risk, but national forests, BLM land, and national wildlife refugees
damn straight I am jealous, which is why I wish to visit many of these someday
I've done a few hike down below the rim for a few days and we stash water along the way down to lighten and also provide us water for the hike out.
incredible intestinal fortitude!
Beautiful photography. Great narration. I have but one suggestion.... The video clips are not in chronological order, nor are they cited as to area, for the most part. After Owls Eyes, for example, I see a clip from Tanner Beach. So that could be confusing to one unfamiliar. Great job, though, in doing this. I am sure Steck and Butchart were chuckling....
Wowowowowowow!
You pulls this off .the best of the best.👍😁🍺i need a drink.
Famous last words: we just don't think there is any concern here at the Grand Canyon (mining employee) 😟
nice and good effort
Doesn't your president want to deregulate national park protections? Enjoy it while you can. LOL
Wonders worth cherishing. Nothing more beautiful on our planet. Need to worry about development.
I will be in this region for the third time in February, lets hope my children have the same unspoiled views we do today!
Nice
Be nice to have a link to part one as well....off to find that first....
Never did find it did you
having a graduate degree in hydrology from the University of Arizona, I am insulted by that guy saying that the travel of water below the ground is "mysterious".... no it's not... its been studied very well.. and there is science to prove that we understand where water flows underground and how fast it flows
Wow, you must be a new graduate. Your premise would be shredded on the witness stand. I've been a mining consultant for over 40 years, working on major mine projects around the world. Mine fluids always get away to some extent, even for most "fully lined" facilities.
The Earth needs subdued and taken care of. But. It must never supplant the needs of humans.
Uranium > some human lives
How did they get and position their food caches on their trip?
One is at the mouth of Olo, so they must have had friendly rafters drop them off. The nearest car access to Olo is about a week's walk away.
That's what I'm curious about
grand canyon America is a royal university of the world 2000 years before the Petra Jordan royal university is established in mediterranean sea.both of them very similar in all concept.grand canyon building long lost and forgotten city of intelligence research and laboratory
👏👏👍👍👍👌👌

Where's part 1?
It's withheld from us. That's how they make money.
right there ->
It's posted.
Some body needs to clean up that uranium mine 😖the dragons tail.
If Hanford is any indication, the tribes ground water is screwed.
Wait what, it snows in the desert?
Teddy PlayzStuff yes and it freezes too
Yes, but mostly in the desert highlands.
Ha,ha ... When they find their food cache they sound like grateful drunken fools
are food caches legal ?
"Food caches may be placed before an extended hike begins, but must be removed within six (6) months after completion of the hike. Hikes for placement of caches or for resupply must meet all backcountry use regulations and policies. Resupply by a commercial (authorized concessioner) river company is allowed."
-Grand Canyon National Park Backcountry Management Plan.
So .... you crossed the Little Colorado River in flood (0:19) .... what time of year? Was that memorably challenging or just a soak in the river and proceed?
Shouldn't ordinarily be a problem. There are many viable fords near the mouth even at high water, as long as it isn't a mud or rock flow as in flash floods. The LCR goes from blue to brown whenever the main flow runs from above the carbonate springs.
And it seems like January so it probably isn't a flash flood with rain so rare then on the plateau above, just icy cold meltwater.
@@BrianForUtah Thanks Brian .... we forded with success (brown but not high) .... we just did it prematurely near the main fish camp and had to bushwhack through thorns for a few hundred yards until we located the trail. Thanks again! Excellent series you both shared. Mad respect as hiking on the trails is hard enough but canyoneering must have been a true test of spirit.
Why is it always 400 ft?
Typical height of the cliff-forming Redwall limestone.
Why y'all not looking for entrances to the temples, pyramids or anything that is truly in the canyon. Missing out
Devvon Crowder temples and pyramids? Very interested!
They are heavily guarded and Smithsonian robbed the underground caverns already!
Sure wish the Uintah and Ourey here in Utah had the same conservation feelings that the Havasupai have. Here in Utah, these tribes have covered their lands in oil wells. Just look it up on google earth southwest of Duchesne Utah. Thousands of wells. And yet where does the money go? Passing through Reservation lands on I40, it sure doesnt look like the money has been given to the people of the reservation. Now do a story on THAT.
Seems to be about a bunch of people doing a long hike a whinging about it .... maybe I am not getting the point or something
Obviously not
First

protect this place. Don let Trump destroy it.
man yall dumb asss com. bout trump up yo asss
