A conversation with Pete McBride & Kevin Fedarko

Two friends, zero preparation, one dream: a 750-mile odyssey, on foot, through the heart of America’s most magnificent national park and the grandest wilderness on earth. A few years after quitting his job to pursue the ill-advised delusion of becoming a whitewater guide on the Colorado River, journalist Kevin Fedarko was approached by his best friend, the acclaimed National Geographic photographer Pete McBride, with a vision as bold as it was harebrained. Together, they would embark on an end-to-end traverse, on foot, across the heart of the Grand Canyon, a marathon that McBride promised would be “a walk in the park.” Against his better judgment, Fedarko agreed, unaware that the tiny cluster of experts who had completed the trek (for which there is no trail) billed it as “the toughest hike in the world.” In this presentation, Join Kevin and Pete for a rollicking and poignant account of an epic misadventure, a singular portrait of a sublime place, and a deeply moving plea for the preservation of America’s greatest natural treasure.
