Vanessa Keating will hike the entire length of the Colorado River to raise awareness about the decline which is causing drought.
The Colorado River wasn’t really on my mind as I was scrolling through TikTok the other night looking for cat videos, gem videos, and interesting smoothie recipes to try. The TikTok algorithm had other plans, however. To the surprise of Vanessa Keating,Her video was taken at Lake Powell, which is the second-largest man-made lake in the USA.
I reached out to Vanessa, who shared photos of the river with me. She was camping with her dog when we spoke on the phone. This trip will be a short one compared to the long journey she is about to begin in August. This made Vanessa question what was happening. And as she continued to study and observe, she began to fall in love with the river.
“When I first started this hike plan, I was going to stick to the floodplain and stay as close to the river as I could safely be, but then my dog came into the picture four years ago.” “And then I went there recently and they’ve actually closed down that visitors center completely because of the low water levels and now she’s sitting at 26%. So, it’s dropped 7% in a year.
