    This one's a big one! We cross Utah in a single day in only two flights totalling 7.2 hours of seat time and over 385 miles. A lot of craziness happens in this video - 87 mph groundspeed, biggest mountains yet, Caleb attempting to pee from his harness, a crash, crossing a munitions depot and the Great Salt Lake, and a motor out resulting in a huge glide! Don't forget to watch the other two videos as well 🙂... and if I didn't make it obvious, we landed in Idaho for our 1st campsite of the trip.
    Also, everyone go like this review at the Sublett Fuel Stop where we camped out. It would be hilarious to blow the review up!

    Mark, I've been an on and off follower since your very early days of para-motoring. I have to say of all the guys I follow, you've always been the guy that does the coolest stuff. No I'm not talking about super high risk silly stuff, rather I speak of the most interesting stuff. This series has been outstanding. The voice overs combined with the real time audio has been excellent. The video views are spectacular as well. How you don't have a million subs is beyond me. I'm also a big fan of Chucky Wright.You guys just get it done. It's been great so far. I'm looking forward to the final installments. Cheers from Chicago guys, thanks for making and sharing this outstanding content.

The Stansbury Island at GSL you flew over has some great soaring ridges too. Looks like your last stop near Idaho is right by another Paragliding site. Ahh those mountains are amazing… thanks for taking me back to Utah…flying paradise ❤🎉

    What was your limbs leg after sitting in paramotor did you cramp or go numb any pain it's like a motorcycle long ride you cant get up and get out of position for long periods. Great milage times is it bivy vs tent weight that gave you more fuel left I legs of flight or was it motor power plant and wing? How did you got better fuel economy?
