3 Weeks.
Backpacking
We were with a new crew for canyons. This was my incredible family of a group at the end of our 3 weeks. That is what I look like when a person that has hardly any body fat and is underweight going into an activity loses over 15 pounds. They had me eating bacon fat, butter and the "ultimate hotty" which was 3 times the amount of hot chocolate, a cup of chocolate chips, a snickers bar, and 2 scoops of peanut butter. They made me drink that because they were worried about my weight, and enjoyed seeing me bounce of the walls.
Incredibly Unique landscape and weather 90 during the day snowing at night it doesn't get much better. By that night we made it into that canyon. 
We were able to go on solos. Where most people fasted or just ate cactus. I took this picture because for some reason I thought it could be my last. This was the most uplifting and eye opening experience I have ever had. I highly recommend solitude and hunger. It puts life in perspective.
This is a re-ration. Yes that is a lot of food. No it didn't last the whole time. Yes I always was hungry.
Setting out the maps we would cover in 3 weeks of hard traveling everyday. Kind of overwhelming but very cool.
An infamous scorpion. scary delicious.
Bow and Drill class. It is not as easy as Man Vs. Wild Bear Grillz makes it out to be.
For months at a time every cup of water I had was filled with; mud, bugs, worms, or even poo.
Pictures and words will never come close to explaining the beauty of this place I fell in love with.

Of course it's not as easy as Bear makes it out to be. That's why he always carries the flint!
