A four day solo journey down Paria Canyon and Buckskin Gulch following the massive flash floods of Spring 2023 in Utah / Arizona. In order to complete this 40 mile backpacking trip, I had to pack a wetsuit, GPS, waterproof everything, get stuck in quicksand, and cross the freezing cold river hundreds of times. This trip offered a unique experience to see Paria truly alone - I did not see another human for the entirety of the four days, and I was the first to attempt since the death of several hikers and the rescue of 19 others during May 2023.
Wishing the best for the families of those affected by the flash floods- unfortunately- the rain storms continue to cause flooding and more deaths in this area since this trip.
