In 1869, a small group of surveyors led by John Wesley Powell set out to map the unknown extent of the Colorado River Basin. 150 years later, a team set out to raft in Powell's footsteps in an effort to reevaluate Powell's legacy, absorb the unquantifiable power of place, and articulate what the future may hold for water in the American West.
