Day 5: Colorado River (Note to Self: Don't Die)

There are few things in life that are actually life changing. Seeing death, seeing the joy in a child's face, and being broken down by the strength of the desert. Trekking through the scarcity of the desert seems ignorant to most, but to the few who have faced: the refining fires of near dehydration, the brutal beating of the Sun, and the seemingly endless foot stomping that the hike turns becomes; know that those who haven't been in the line of fire are the ignorant. If you don't have a true understanding of destitution, than how can you truly apprehend the benefaction of plenty.
