    As a guy who grew up in the northeast, just an hour outside of NYC, I have to say a trip like this is on my bucket list and may be number #1 over all. The beauty that you captured of Southern Utah can’t be expressed in words. It really puts into perspective how beautiful our country is. Praise God for it all!

    Beautiful scenery. There are a number of canyons that drop into the E Fork from the N and there are walk, scramble exists to the S. The country was painted by Maynard Dixon a century ago & JW Powell and his group entered this on their 2nd trip to the West. With permission from the private land owner, one can proceed W through the slot as it empties into open terrain. There is also a good deal of indigenous remnant in the region. Thanks for the show.

Cars bringing the masses, and with them there garbage, noise, pollution, general lack of serene wildness. Plenty of over, landing places already, we need more truly wild places.

I have filmed for travel and tourism of Utah and have been to some incredible places and have had my footage seen around the world….but was inspired watching this. Great job on the filming. Here is a link of some video I recently captured of Castle Valley. Question for you….I have a Subaru Outback Wilderness with 9.5” of clearance and decent all-terrain tires. I didn’t see anything I don’t think it could handle but maybe you did. Do you think it would manage okay? Cheers!
