I hiked it a few x's back in the late 80's & early 90's, both south & north. I'm mid 50's now & done w/solo extended hikes 😅 p.s. 1st time to sedona was '84 - unrecognizable now : (
So cool, my mom is around your age. You guys are time travelers and have made it so far. You made the world you see today possible for younglings like us, thank you
So fantastic to record this for us! Never got a chance to see the Grand Canyon in person! So sorry for the two who died! Take care of yourself! Thank you! 🕊🙏❤️🙏🕊
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..!!
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.
I live in a beautiful wilderness in the Canadian north, but that Grand Canyon is something else. I can see how one could become obsessed with exploring it. Awesome.
Loved the story and going along on your hike to the Emerald pool. I was fortunate to have a good friend invite me, along with 10 other Adventure Seeking Alaskans on the Grand Canyon in a 16 day raft trip. The river trip is a wonder of the World and the stories of the Canyon are absolutely wild. Thanks for sharing this interesting Book and story.
As you end this video and talk about the Hopi seer, I got goose bumps. So many mysteries in our world we are completely unaware of because we live lives so disjointed from nature. Thank you for taking us along on this amazing adventure.
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. nice adventure tho
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.
Not sure you are alone in the canyon but if you are that is awesome and impressive! Nothing gives a person a stronger sense of freedom than being alone and perfectly comfortable with it. Kudos too for doing all that you can to make your hike a safe one. Keep the videos coming!
@@virtualpilgrim8645more than one, but thats just as much apart of it as the shoes on your feet. How many men have crossed the desert alone and lived to tell the tale?
@@PerpetualWane “A part of” what exactly? Making risky decisions and then being reported missing in miles of desert and canyons? It’s all fun and games until search and rescue teams are expected to risk their lives to save some foolish lone wanderer.
@@TitaniumTurbine a part of the journey? The adventure? The challenge? Whatever you wanna call it. If you walk out into the desert with no way to survive the trip, whether thats knowledge, equipment, or resources(ideally all three), then you probably shouldn’t have gone out there in the first place. Sorry you’ve been conditioned to believe you need to spend your life in temperate boxes and concrete jungles.
haha, I agree ... in all of my hikes whether they were just a day or thousands of miles over weeks ... food tastes way better. And I believe I saw you pick up some trash (water bottle on the ground before you got to camp) - thanks for keeping nature clean. Nature provides everything in life we need, it doesn't cost us anything, it only asks that we preserve and protect it.
Wow ! What an adventure. Aren't you afraid of the rattlesnakes that could be in those rocks? I know people have died there due to that. Thanks for sharing. The Canyon is beautiful !
Very somber story, but really interesting thing I that you mentioned a seers a medicine woman in 14:14 of the video. I have respect for the Hopi tribes and many others, I was a friend on one who was 1/2 Lakota for five years. What a wonderful video, thanks...
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!
An extremely well put together video. From camera work, to on screen presentation, to editing and telling the story - both theirs and yours. Great work.
I used to spend two weeks a year hiking in the mountains living off the land. After two weeks food in town was just as heavenly as you described. A hot smothered burrito was transcending. 😊
I also have that book, and also read the story about them. You're right, that was one wild story. And what a GREAT book "Over the Edge: Death in Grand Canyon" is!!
Read that book along with several others when I first began playing outside. Off the Wall was equally good. I thought you were about to narrate the story of the bloke who accidentally backed his auto off the edge. Or the dad who tried to fool his daughter while posing, he jumped down to the next ledge and . . . lost his balance. Niiiice. Best way I've found to stay alive is to read accounts of those who didn't.
Very interesting story. This may be one of my new favorite channels!! I love that you hike to remote places to camp and explore. Looking forward to part 2.
I was reading the same book and looking up something totally different and was thrilled to run across this. I've always been fascinated with the Grand Canyon. I have visited twice but only hiked the Rim Trail, never went into the bottom. It's on my bucket list for sure! Thanks for this post and your footage!
I understand not allowing the dead to be photographed or kept in museums, but nobody should dictate who photographs what bunch of rocks on this planet. Some people have photographic memory anyway so It's kind of not fair.
@@oongieboongieBeing respectful of others cultures is a given..but is it respectful to others to keep natural beauty from others? I can’t understand why they don’t want something that belongs to the planet photographed? It belongs to the planet, to nature..
Love your channel! Going back and watching old videos and I found the part 2 to this video. It is called the This Aqua Blue River has a Dark side - Strangest Grand Canyon. Hope this helps others find it.
Wow thank you for posting this so interesting, your a great story teller….please be careful in the canyon looking for more videos subbed , loved it when I was there❤
Bravo. It’s great to see that not only have you done the research but you actually go to the location. Really enjoyed this video and waiting for part two. Subbed
This just convinced me that i have to go hike down into the Grand Canyon sometime this is amazing. Been to the too a couple times while on other road trips in the area. Nice video dude 🤙🏻
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
Until watching this video, I never knew the Hopi people were promoters of delusional superstition. It really motivates me to oppose all Hopi land claims, an issue I previously wasn't aware of. 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. Please, if you know about any other superstitions being promoted by sovereign tribes or other governmental entities, please let me know!
@@datrooster4112 That would be funny because if they did that they would be in violation of federal statute; 25 U.S.C. § 1302(a)(1) prohibits tribal governments from abridging freedom of speech, the ICRA equivalent of the First Amendment, which definitely includes trespass due to political speech. I would then be able to sue them for civil rights violations in federal court and they'd end up paying me just for criticizing religious superstition. Now, to be clear, they are probably sharp enough not to take such obviously illegal actions, but it is hilarious that you believe this.
Anyone from Arizona knows that flash floods happen all the time. Weather checks are 100% necessary. I grew up watching people get washed away in the washes with every storm..even from storms 20 miles north. Watch a video of a flash flood, and you'll never forget it. It's like a tsunami you can't see coming.
Great video with exception of Linda and George losing their lives...may they rest in peace. You are a very brave soul and keep on having these types of adventures while you're young...not saying you can't do them when you're older but I think it's better for many different reasons when you are younger!
Awesome video and i find it most interesting that you can experience total sunshine in the canyon and then all of the sudden get hit by a giant wall of water. What a dangerous but glorious place.
I’m 2 minutes into the video and so glad I found and subscribed to your channel. I love the fact of you taking us to the place where it all happened. Okay, now I’m nervous 4:10 you really have guts going there alone. Glad you made it out safe. I enjoyed the video, thank you for the journey.
Wow! This so cool is your video l just like all your other videos. Sorry about your drown. Those Canyons and all that rock 🪨 are awesome 😊 Thank you for sharing ☆♡☆
I lived and worked at the Grand Canyon in 1999. I also have the book, Over the Edge, which is an amazing read! There are some extremely interesting deaths/disappearances in the canyon. For me personally, the tale of Glenn and Bessie Hyde is the most fascinating.
Hello, great work! I am from Germany and have read that book too, so how unique to learn that you actually found yourself the place of their last stay ! I am much impressed by your exciting videos and wish you much luck, be careful please ! Thanks a lot , I am following you..
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)
Oh this is cool. Glad I found you as a smaller channel. When you have a half million subs I can claim I’ve been knowing about your work for a long time. lol 😎 be safe out there.
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💫
OMG, that descending hike. When I was younger I wouldn’t have given it a second thought. Nowadays, forget it. Whenever I plan a canoe trip, not only do I check the weather but also take a weather radio. In addition, I have campsites well out of the floodplain. George disrespected Mother Nature and paid the price. Unfortunately, he took another with him.
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.
I hiked the canyon in my 20's, I'm 73 now. Thank for being young and adventurous enough to record this. Wonderful, thank you, thank you.
I hiked it a few x's back in the late 80's & early 90's, both south & north. I'm mid 50's now & done w/solo extended hikes 😅

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.
