    Michael Ghiglieri, one of the authors of your book, has also written about Maj. William Powell and the first trip exploring the Green River, Colorado River, and the Grand Canyon 1869. My great grandfather William Hawkins was the cook on this first trip, about 20/21 years old.

    Life has taught me that strange things happen in strange ways. After all, it's called the monsoon season for a reason and the canyon is a big ditch that the rushing water funnels into. You are a brave soul hiking alone in this rugged remote section of the canyon. A twisted ankle would make a mystery story when your camera is found down there years from now with no signs of you to be found. Rock On..!!

      same with the geese bumps. mysteries are mysteries because they're gatekept by the illumintay and nature is a medium they use to disrupt out karmic connection to the universe. they used to achieve that with rose quartz pyramid capstones back in the day but it's 7g towers now. macdonalds sell quarter pounders and many consume quarter pounders each day without realizing the environmental damage it does.

    From what I know about canyoneering and flooding, I would always have a plan for where to go in order to climb to higher ground. In other words, have an escape plan. It's crucial to plan the escape prior to arriving at dangerous low spots so there would be time to get back there and climb to safety. It's possible that they were mere feet from being able to escape the danger if they knew what to do.

  • @imhere653
    @imhere653 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    I completely concur, sir!
    A power bar at the bottom of the canyon (or anywhere else on a challenging hike) tastes really, REALLY delicious. However; that identical power bar tastes more like what chocolate-covered road must taste like when you're not fatigued from outdoor fun and other food choices are within reasonable reach. I've hiked the GC twice, but only on the well-traveled and definitively marked routes. I'm glad to see you're "slaking your thirst" for the lone wolf type of experience while you're able. Think of all the people who thought they would go but never did. A small percentage of hikers actually do this. We're part of an exclusive group that have seen the canyon from the bottom up. Worth every step!

Or the dad who tried to fool his daughter while posing, he jumped down to the next ledge and . . . lost his balance. Niiiice.

      I think a person could possibly climb the canyon walls as the water went up in the right location in a flood situation that is for a tough swimmer and climber I always like to travel with some rope PS also a pointer is when you travel the Buffalo River in Arkansas up the upper Buffalo River Wilderness it's in a canyon and we ran it by boat years ago camping I followed old Melvin Johnson up the buffalo in my boat with my brother-in-law Randy simonis from Wisconsin and the river is prone to flood also and I asked Melvin during those big floods when you camp what do you do when the water keeps Rising question mark he said make sure you have a long rope I would say 50 or 100 ft of strong cord anchor rope to tie your boat off with all of your camp and fishing equipment in hunting equipment in it and as the water levels rise and keep Rising you keep moving your Camp up higher above the water line meantime letting your boat drift but tied off so that it can raise as the water levels go up and you are sleeping

I'm going to do some more research into this, but if true I'll be writing to my senators/reps urging them to oppose the several Hopi land claims to limit the spread of this dangerous nonsense.

    You can check the weather forecast, but they change. In a multiday trip inside a canyon, how will you get any weather warnings?
    By camping in a low spot you were exposed to unforecast weather. I'd be keeping my eye out for access to safe elevation in case of flash flooding.

    your vids are of incredible quality, pure from all the modern theatrical bullshit formats, so elegantly directed. that gem of fresh air.
    we request more emphasizing on encountered fauna/flora, self's survival points, random anecdota/details... or we just want more at this point!
    now i learned how sick of a biotope US canyons are, such a peaceful and "cosy" playground if you're methodical enough
    like even the surrounding quantity of live forms is never overwhelming XD scattered vernal pools, lophophoras, geology, traces of native humans... nahhhhhhh
    (last frame is savage, you were only sticking your legs up the sky away from getting struck by lightning)

    This is a good warning for people who think about hiking in such places. Think about what happens to a tiny river that is fed by rain. In a canyon the water can rise like crazy, you can expect a tsunami like wave of water coming for you. And white water is ALWAYS life threatening, moving water can pull you under, trap you and you are gone. Do not underestimate water. So, do check the weather and ask the local rangers or police for help, will it be safe during your trip? That must be part of your preparation. I guess.

    You’re right about the food tasting best when you’re camping however, you chose one of the best brands for freeze dried food I’ve ever come across.

    Good story. Well done. My only concern is that you appear to be alone. That is never a good idea.

    You could leave some water behind if going back the same way....than you don't have to carry that heavy backpack!
    Make it easier for yourself.
    I like your videos. Places we wouldn't see without people like you. Thank you💫
