Great video! I have learned to love the West Desert. It's highly underrated for exploring. I am planning on spending more time out there this year and doing a full weekend of camping and rockhounding.

Why did you refer to Horace Greeley as infamous?

@@zanjero Don't read too much into it. If I kept rewriting the script to perfect it the vids would take 6 months to complete. The script was written and rewritten in the middle of the night over about 5 days after working 10 hours on a regular job. Basically I got sick of saying "The well known *blank*" every 3 minutes and was trying to find different ways of saying it. You can almost tell when I was tired and wanted to goto bed by how often something or someone is "transcending, untamed, inspiring, fascinating, unforgiving landscape." That's exhausted 2am me saying, "Just finish this damn scene! I want to goto bed before work starts in 5 hours!"

Beautiful landscapes and info. It would be really interesting to dive deeper into the Mormon influence in Utah both before and after. It's actually quite crazy.
