Summary After sky-diving down, Bear crosses the vast, scorching-hot Mexican Copper canyon, south of the US border. Bear finds the dehydrating heat by day -and icy nights- his greatest challenge while climbing up and down high, steep, unpredictable cliffs. The arid land, surprisingly varied with volcanic hot springs, waterfalls and a glacier, offers little water and sustenance, so he must filter unpolluted pools or finds steaming water and eat what he can catch, like fat grubs and tail-removed scorpions. Exploring a cave with a self-made torch, Bear braves his animal phobia, bats, and is delighted to find a river section with fish he can catch by hand after building primitive rock dams at both sides.
