hugely historical what we're about to go and do an incredible achievement for
both our team from the UK and the White Way because this is a joint effort and
it wouldn't be without them that we could get to the source so we're working
in this beautiful harmony together to create history we're gonna spend the
next two to three weeks in their dugout canoes and then we embark on a journey
of a lifetime to the source and River I think the next few weeks are going to be
very hard physical labor well we've been on the CP River now for all of about ten
minutes and already we have our first roadblock we're slowly making our way up
the CP river towards the source but there are a lot of fallen trees in the
way this is gonna get a little bit sketchy this is our 42nd there's
definitely no health and safety out here is there you know I love to do what men
do but I just don't have the skill set I did a few well it's really quite
disturbing is that when they do this chopping you get a load of spiders
raining down on us well that's a big spider asking you to pull out of a tree
for wherever it came from you can go back there how big it is compared to my
hand my hands are shaking at this parent moment in time Jackson's got his finger
in a hole in the boat they keep saying to me
now you think it's hard now and you think it's tough now just wait until you
get on the track if they said it's tough it's going to eat you to toe
we're gonna stop walking I think we've reached the end of the
line please roadblock and we said you know now is the time we're gonna track
the next step is to find the source of this and this is what we've got to walk
through hopefully you'll be fine human is hot and it's really quite
suffocating you people fit in the wrong place look at they well be a spider or
Angela and the dialogue for literally continuous 45 degrees up 45 degrees
around the other side 45 degrees out day 3 of tracking and we're going to do it
all over again for the next the next day and God knows for how long
a normal kilometer is quite another thing during a jungle kilometer it's
really concerning Stewart quite a little hiking today why am i doing it we really
rely on water resource all the creeks that we've been seeing on a map they're
more like a swamp and undrinkable the source is in a completely different
area but we thought it was so it's already taking double the amount of time
to you know five to seven and a little track that you were gonna do now turned
it into a near month-long absolute mammoth epic trip this is real survival
now just had a conversation with James right now about food resources and we're
gonna run out lunch is basically whatever there guys catch or fish or
hunt in the morning that is lunch and dinner
we need to eat but seeing that I'm just completely conflicted in myself right
now I'm seriously going vegetarian
Oh SpiderMonkey decided to trade with us find a snake eating a harpy eagle this
is scary unit sometimes you feel scared we're getting more and more remote and
the chance of rescue out here is very slim
we spent a month trucking here blood sweat and tears to get to this point and
now we can finally say that the expedition begins in earnest from here
we begin our descent to the mouth address to keep over there
