I dive into the growing water crisis in the Colorado River Basin and how it’s impacting one of the most controversial dams in U.S. history. Discover the environmental, hydrological, and political challenges facing the Glen Canyon Dam — and the surprising story of Glen Canyon’s reemergence with the declining water levels in Lake Powell, revealing stunning landscapes hidden for over 50 years.Glen Canyon has been considered our lost national park. We flooded this network of canyons in the 60's to make way for Lake Powell, and it's been one of our great ecological blunders. With severe drought, the reservoir is drying up. With the bad news comes some hope, the canyons that have been submerged and buried in mud and silt are starting to come back. To make this video I went to the desert of Utah with a buddy to explore these haunted canyons by packraft and on foot over a six day adventure.Many of the above links are affiliate links, which means I earn a small commission on qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you.

I Try an Exoskeleton to Hike Grand Canyons Rim to Rim Eric Hanson 2025-05-04 | I try the new Hypershell X to hike one of the most demanding routes in the Grand Canyon. This video is sponsored by Hypershell. Check out the Hypershell X: https://fas.tl/e43e7936Hiking Rim to Rim is a serious endeavor that's considered a classic route in the hiking and backpacking community. With the most common route closed, I try an even more challenging route, hiking down New Hance and out the Grandview trail. It's a monster effort and should only be tried by experienced Grand Canyon and/or desert hikers. I've been wanting to test this new exoskeleton technology that supposedly assists hikers to go farther and faster. I just had to get my hands on a set and see what they can really do.A note on the battery life for the exoskeleton, this challenging route should be manageable with 3 batteries. If the hiking route is steep like the Grand Canyon, the battery will drain faster than on more mild terrain. The Hypershell X MotionEngine detects user's movements and will automatically give you more assistance on uphills. Trying a route of this nature should only be attempted by people fit enough to accomplish this without the use of the exoskeleton.

After hosting a group of 18 travelers for a week in Patagonia, Kristi and I spent five days trekking through El Chalten, which can be seen in Parts 2 and 3. And now, we're setting off to drive some of Patagonia's loneliest landscapes, on empty dirt roads many miles from the nearest human. Travel here is a bit intimidating, and is a famous destination for overlanding, motorcycle adventures, and more. But for those who explore these empty places, some truly great things await.

Hiking Across Arizonas Strange Stratovolcano Eric Hanson 2024-10-20 | This video is sponsored by OnX Backcountry. It's my preferred map/navigation/route planning app. You can save 20% using my link: onxmaps.com/backcountry/r/erichansonArizona is a strange place. But this volcanic mystery might be the strangest part of a state full of oddities. There are hundreds of volcanoes in Arizona, but they don't make sense. They really shouldn't be here at all. Most volcanoes pop up along fault lines and areas with a lot of seismic activity. But Arizona isn't near any fault, which makes the hundreds of volcanoes all the more perplexing. The biggest of them all, the San Francisco Mountain, used to be over 16,000 feet tall. But this stratovolcano collapsed and lost a huge chunk of its impressive height. So, what happened? I hike 15 miles through the remains of this volcano to discover the landscape with new eyes.The Gear I Use in this video:Backpack: alnk.to/bEj38Z2Hiking Sun Hoody: Bivy Bag: alnk.to/9IeIm5O (I use the AC bivy but it seems to be discontinued)Sleeping Mattress: alnk.to/fwr95eRSleeping Bag: alnk.to/7fpWCwUSun Hoodie: alnk.to/dLhYVntHiking Pants: alnk.to/9IeIm76Super Cool Sun Hat: amzn.to/4bNnkJ3DSLR camera: amzn.to/3WHAAuBLens: amzn.to/46uhWcYMicrophone: amzn.to/3WvKoXeThe majority of the link here are affiliate links, which means I earn a small commission on qualifying purchases at no extra cost to you.

I have made three different videos documenting the gear I've put to the test, each time trying to improve the quality of the gear. It all started with a simple idea: most backpackers are not interested in spending a small fortune on good backpacking gear. I've heard from many people who are frustrated that most YouTubers, myself included, only review super expensive gear. So I gave myself a challenge, to scour Amazon to find a quality backpacking set up, tent, backpack, sleeping bag, mattress, stove, cookpot, headlamp, and more, all for under $500 dollars.This video highlights the gear that has been the best.

It's a great way to support creators you enjoy!Want to go backpacking but are intimidated by the crazy price tag of most gear out there? I have been trying to find quality backpacking gear that real backpackers can use while sticking to a strict budget. I bought all the core backpacking components in this video for $503. I have a few extra goodies that I also included that brings the final price to $610. I tried to go backpacking on exclusively Amazon budget gear earlier this year and found there were definitely a lot of items I could improve. So I dug deeper and I found some real gems.
