As part of "Mystery Is A Compass" where I delved into the disappearance of Everett Ruess, a penniless romantic on a metaphysical quest in search of the unknown. He went missing in 1934 heading into Davis Gulch, Escalante.

I followed his route to the Utah desert trying to understand what his motivations were and to witness the beauty that consumed him. In many ways I admired his bravery and selfishness while simultaneously empathising with his inability to find the companionship he so craved.
