01x02 - Arizona Desert

[bunniefuu]

There he is.

Yeah, it looks like a bark scorpion.

An awfully big one.

Don't know if that's the kind of guy I
want to pop him out alive.

Nipping onto my finger there.

Like I said, they're actually quite tasty.

Bordering both North and Central America,
the Sonoran Desert stretches from Mexico

to Colorado, taking in both Arizona and
California.

At best, it may see ten days of rain per
year.

In the desert, rivers have no water.

Plants are so spiny that you dare not
reach out to catch your fall.

The dry heat and wind suck the moisture out
of you quicker than you can replenish it.

The animals here have to be prepared to
survive the extremes.

There is nothing average about this place.

This is the American Southwest.

A desolate, rough, and rugged landscape.

Has only two or three days to find water
before they die of dehydration.

For the unwary traveler, the desert can be
deadly.

One small mistake can turn an afternoon
off-road drive into a tragedy.

After the crew shoots the
opening scenes, they'll leave me

alone with a broken-down dirt
bike in the middle of the desert.

It's something that could happen to
anyone.

But in my case, at least
I know that seven days

later, my support crew
will come looking for me.

Yeah, right.

Oh, the bike?

Well, the camera crew took a good one and
left me alone with this piece of junk.

Alone for seven days...

...and one dead motorbike.

This is not the place you want to be
stranded.

Sun's setting quick.

I've got some warmer clothes in the pack.

I'll put on.

It's just way too late in the day now to
make any kind of shelter.

Oh, man.

So I'm just gonna sit here for the night.

It gets really hot here during the day.

Hot enough to dehydrate you quickly.

But at night...

...it still gets below freezing.

Day two.

Six more days to go.

Well, I certainly didn't sleep much last
night.

Got pretty cold.

Enough to put frost on the bike and
everywhere else, too.

Let's see.

I've got my camera gear.

I've got basically just the clothes on my
back.

Enough...

Enough water for a couple of days anyway.

A few days.

Although it's getting up to 80 degrees and


And... I should have...

Just...

One snack bar.

Well... Let's see what I can
get off of this bike anyway.

Sun's been up for barely 10-15 minutes.

Already it's getting hot.

You know... If you're lost
in the middle of the desert...

With little chance of rescue...

There's no point in being squeamish about
your equipment.

I'm gonna vandalize this thing.

See what I can use.

That could come in handy.

Got a couple more of those.

All this wiring could make great cordage.

You always need rope.

When you're lost.

Or stranded.

All right.

I've managed to scrounge up a few things
off the bike.

Got some rope material.

Maybe make something for digging out of
this.

And I got these prongs.

They're not prongs.

I've got these spokes.

Which I can use like a three-pronged
spear.

I've got the... I'll probably
do something with the seat.

But the only thing I left back there was
the rubber tires.

And I can cut them off later.

And either burn them for black smoke as a
signal fire.

Or make strapping out of them.

But this area has no shade for me.

And it's pretty dusty.

And it's getting hot.

So I'm gonna see if I can find a better
location.

And also, maybe some food.

This is all so new to me.

Below freezing at night.

And intensely hot during the day.

And as far as I can see, rocks and cactus.

It's gonna be tough to find water here.

You know, walking down through this wash
here is about the flat area I can find.

Whenever I thought of the desert,
I always thought of it being pretty flat.

You know?

Flat and Sandy.

In fact, it's anything but.

It's all rock and hills.

Some of them quite steep.

And just about every single plant that you
pass wants to stick you with something.

Until I step over one of those little plants,
it makes it sound like a rattler snake.

I'm just gonna stroll away and see what I
can find.

Some wild edibles.

It really doesn't matter where you look
around here.

It's just desert, as far as you can see.

Here, let me show you what I'm seeing.

More than a hundred thousand square miles.

That's the Sonora Desert.

These washes are a good place to find a
different variety of plants for eating.

That's for sure.

It's not the snakes and scorpions that
worry me.

It's running into a pack of wild
peccaries.

They're vicious little guys, and their
tracks are all over this place.

They're kind of like pigs or wild boars.

And they may have terrible eyesight,
but their sense of smell is excellent.

And they'll attack you in numbers,
in an unorganized and wild fashion.

These Christmas cholla look like they'd be
nice and juicy, and you just pick some off

and rub off the fluffy hairs on them, and
pop them in your mouth and they'd be good.

Well, in fact, it's true, they are good to
eat.

They were even part of the traditional
diet in this area.

What they're covered with are little
spines called glockets.

And if you don't get...

If you miss one glocket and leave it on
there, and pop that in your mouth,

you're going to know about it for days.

It sticks in your tongue and it just
aches.

So you really have to clean them off.

And on it goes until it's completely clean
of all the glockets.

Okay, there, I just spent like,
maybe ten minutes, just trying to get all

the tiny, tiny, little hair-like glockets
off of this Christmas cholla.

It's good.

Just a lot of work.

I gotta find a way of
staying warmer tonight,

getting up off the ground
and protected from above.

This grass should go a long way towards
helping me stay warm.

But I'm using my gloves because what makes
me really nervous here is this is a

perfect place for rattlesnakes to be
laying.

They like the heat of the grass.

There must be some
moisture under the ground here

for all of this Cariso
cane to be growing here.

I've got my blanket with my grass.

I use this Cariso cane for my mattress,
I hope.

I was hoping to turn this bed into
something comfortable.

The sun's setting pretty quickly,
as always.

There.

When I do finally settle in, it'll be
something like this.

Who knows, might even be...

might even be warm.

I sure hope there's no spiders in there.

Black Widow, that is.

Well, comfy.

I knew that seed would be good for
something.

I was pretty warm for most of the night
underneath that grass.

Last little bit of the
night, the frost came

in and I started to
get a bit chilled then.

And with the sun coming up, it
actually doesn't hit down in my

gully soon enough, so I'm up
here to catch some morning rays.

I'm going to see if I can weave that grass
together into a mattress and into a

blanket and see if I can maybe get a fire
going as well.

Okay, now.

I've stripped apart all of the wiring that
I had taken off of the motorbike.

And now I'm just going
to make all this grass

into these long, long
sort of cylinders here.

and I'll start to tie them together in
bundles.

Sort of, you just come through,
make a bundle like this, and then go

around the next one in the opposite
direction.

And basically I'm going to
pull the whole thing together and

weave through my wiring to tie
this whole bit of grass together.

And then what that'll do is give me
basically a good portable mattress and a

good solid mattress that'll hold together
well for me.

There we go.

Just enough wire to make a bed.

Now I'll try for some fire now.

This seat cover will work
as a good base for my

fire starting to keep
things out of the sand.

First I'm going to give a
good effort to get fire going by

using the traditional method
of this area, the hand drill.

Very primitive method.

What I've done is, first of all,
I got all my tinder bundle, my grass

together by hammering
it with a rock and making

some powder and putting
powder in the middle.

And you kind of wrap it with some other
grass.

And I actually used one of
my wires from the motorbike

to tie it off and make
myself the fire bundle here.

I found this spindle just while I was down
getting the creeso cane.

It's a piece of seat Willow.

And the baseboard that I'm using is one of
the ribs of the sororo cactus.

All dead and dried out
and I've just sort of whittled

it down to be the right shape
for me to work with here.

The other thing I did was make this fire
lay over here ready to go.

Just a stick stuck in the ground and then
all the other, the heavier wood put on top.

And that way when your grass goes
underneath to light up, the heavy wood

doesn't crush it and you can get a nice
good aerated fire to get it going.

Now, to do this right, first I had to
just, find the right place and then once

I've got the spindle settling on the
baseboard, I cut out a little notch and

that will give a place for all the hot
dust to fall down into.

Now, what I was showing was to try and
keep this motion going, if you do the kind

of the itsy-bitsy spider move,
you practice that for a while to get the

motion right of what it is you want to do
while you make this thing spin.

When you're spinning really hard,
if you're just spinning in one spot like

this and you're just doing little short
ones, it's a lot tougher to get it going.

So that's the motion I want to try and
keep happening.

And the last thing is, as you can see,
I've been practicing.

It's from these blister marks, it's
really easy to get blisters doing this.

And so, as soon as you're sort of stopped,
you smack your hands together really hard,

so hard that it hurts, but that
rushes the blood back into the

skin and helps anyway to
prevent the blisters from coming on.

Let's give this a try.

You really have to suck up the pain as
your hands get hotter and hotter.

Ah, there, Floyd.

Yeah, baby!

Ooh, doesn't that look good?

Whoo!

No cold, no more cold nights for me.

It's gonna be a warm
night, and it's gonna keep

the peccaries and the
mountain lions away from me.

This brings in a whole new element of
psychological comfort.

Yeah.

And you know, the beauty about fire in the
desert is that there's just dry firewood

everywhere, under the mesquite trees and
different...

Everything's gnarled and dried up and
dead.

So I'll be able to keep this fire going
for a good long time.

This is great.

There he is.

Yeah, it looks like a bark scorpion.

An awfully big one.

Ooh, and he wants to sting me.

Look at that thing.

Good way to eat these guys.

What you want to do is hold them down and
just cut off the stinger.

Look at him trying to sting that.

So once you can get the stinger cut off...

There.

There.

Okay.

Now, he shouldn't be much of a problem.

Ow!

See him nipping onto my finger there?

He's... Ow!

Like the pinch onto your tongue.

Like I said, they're actually quite tasty.

Mmm.

Not bad at all.

Can't believe I just did that.

Not bad at all.

Mmm.

Definitely a bark scorpion.

Nice and tasty.

All this creosote bush is a great plant of
the desert.

I can use it to make a smudge fire to
actually to cleanse myself.

It's also good as about
the only thing you can really

kind of use when you
got to go to the bathroom.

Creosote bush has 69
different chemicals that

bugs and fungus and
different bacteria don't like.

So it's a very good, powerful plant for an
awful lot of uses.

There may be no water for washing up out
here, but you can still feel fresh.

The sweet smoke of
the creosote bush actually

kills much of the bacteria
that causes body odor.

Most fear is born of ignorance.

The sound of the desert seems benign,
not spooky like a jungle at night.

Here it's birds chirping,
the dry breeze, but

scorpions, black
widows, and rattlesnakes.

That's what lie behind the rocks and in
the grass.

That's what can get into your mind and
create fear.

Yet the desert, as dry
and hot as it is, has been

called home by humans
for thousands of years.

This is an amazing find.

All this wall along here is not natural.

It's man-made.

Man-made over a thousand years ago.

There's chert here that came from a great
distance away through trade networks.

Lots of pottery.

You know, the camera's sitting in a ruin.

There's ruins in all behind me there.

This whole hilltop is just one massive,
multi-room complex.

Some people believe that the pueblo who
lived here were actually under a bit of a

sl*very to the Hohokum,
and the mountain

builders from the east,
that style of peoples.

And around 800 years ago, they simply got
fed up and abandoned all of these places.

Went on to put more fertile ground.

These stones here, very obviously brought
in.

This one here, you can tell, was a bit of
a grinding stone.

You can even see the
scoring from the grinding,

perhaps used to make
jewelry of some sort.

It's fascinating.

These cactus here are kind of famous.

It's called barrel cactus, and it's said
that if you slice them open, and open them

up, that they're full of water and you can
drink it.

And in fact, you see them all growing
often over to the side.

Supposedly that's because of the weight of
the water.

Well, that's not true at all.

In fact, they're growing over
to the side because they're

following the sun, just like
many plants and flowers.

If you do slice them open and try to drink
the stuff, it's very slimy, and it

actually ends up being worse for you in
the end.

In fact, it can bring your
core temperature down,

which can give you some
really bad nighttime chills.

I suppose that's pretty good in the middle
of the day when it's really hot,

but the fact is that they don't rehydrate
you at all.

It's a very slimy, very pasty,
slimy kind of substance.

But what they are good for, you can also
get the fruits.

Oh!

Oh, that hurt.

Oh, that hurt.

Big time.

Sorry.

I guess he didn't like me taking this
fruit just yet.

What you do is you don't eat the whole
thing.

Open this up.

Inside.

It's a whole...

whole bunch of little black seeds.

And they're tasty.

Mmm.

There's no point in rationing water in the
desert.

The moisture is sucked
from your body in this dry heat

so quick that you can't
hope to quench your thirst.

With only a few sips a day, my water is
almost gone.

I've got to find an oasis in this place.

The heat of the day like this, all you
really want to do is lay around in the shade.

Not much left to my energy bar.

I gotta go find some more food.

Oh, yeah.

These little guys are awesome.

Strawberry pincushion.

And by far...

the most tastiest treat in the desert.

I think.

Mmm.

Oh, yeah.

Like a combination between a strawberry
crossed with a kiwi.

Oh, man, is that good.

And bring my blood sugar level up a notch.

Mmm.

Oh, yeah.

This is the plant you'll want to farm.

Excuse me while I chow down.

Next thing I want to do is take my digging
stick.

The one that I put in the fire,
underneath the fire to harden.

And I'm going to turn it into a spear by
using these, uh, spokes from the motorbike.

And I can grind them to a
point either on a rock, or,

if I want, the multi-tool
has a, uh, great file on it.

Just to get them into a nice, sharp point.

Once I've got that happening, though,
I'm going to take the three of them using

the C-clamp that I got from, uh,
from the motorbike.

I can strap them onto here probably pretty
good.

Pretty tight.

Okay.

There.

I now have a very functional three-pronged
spear.

This gives me a confidence boost because
it helps me with protection against

mountain lions and, and peccaries,
the javelin.

Which, uh, at nighttime, still always give
you a bit of the spook.

It's always said that people can last
three to five days without water.

But here in the desert, the wind is so dry
and the heat's so stifling that it sucks

the moisture right out of you,
reducing your survival time.

I can't see making it to five days without
water in a place like this.

I'm finding it really hard to ration my
water.

And I've still got four days to go.

I should really think about maybe finding
another water source.

It's not that it's really hot.

It's about high 70s or
so during the day, but it's

so dry, it just sucks the
moisture right out of you.

I'm already starting to get dehydration
headaches.

Whether I like it or not,
I'm going to have to leave

this little spot if I want
to survive the week.

I'm going to have to go up and over a few
hills to see if I can...

find a place with some water.

Some areas of the desert, you can walk a
few miles, find some water in other areas.

You can walk 60 miles and not find any.

Sonora Desert is 100,000 square miles.

That's a lot of desert.

Traveling through this desert is anything
but easy.

Every plant stabs with its spine.

Every rock shifts under my feet.

When I climb the hills, I have to remain
ever mindful of not putting my hand within

striking distance of a rattlesnake sunning
itself in the heat of the day.

Water.

I've got to find a good source of water.

All day I've been suffering from fatigue
and dehydration headaches.

If I can spot a valley with
a greenbelt in the middle,

it may mean running water
or maybe even a small river.

This is tough hiking.

It's a couple of miles since my last camp.

But I'm looking down there and I think I
can hear the sound of water.

And I think I might have found myself a
nice little gorge to get down into.

I can see the type of vegetation.

It's called a riparian zone
where I'm starting to see

sycamore and I've been
walking through all this mesquite.

So there's been a change.

I think I might have found my new home.

I can hear the water.

I can smell the water.

It smells fresh and clean.

This little paradise is about five miles
and a few hills from my first camp.

And of course, because I
have too much camera gear,

I had to hike it twice just
to get all the gear here.

But I'll tell you, this little desert
creek, man, this is a sight for sore eyes.

This is like Shangri-La.

Oh, this is beautiful.

Fresh, clear, cold water.

Yeah, it was such a beautiful place that I
wasn't thinking as much about survival as

I should have been, barely
noticing that I was only peeing

once a day and it was very
dark, indicating dehydration.

I may still be losing weight due to a lack
of nutrition, but at least I can stay

hydrated now and keep clear of heat
stroke.

Now this is an oasis for survival.

But I still need to get my fire going.

Well, I banked up all these stones and
made myself a little sort of pad here.

I'm going to sleep underneath this Juniper
tree.

It's a great place to sleep.

It keeps the dew off you at night.

And there seems to be some sort of residual
heat that stays underneath these trees.

They're a great place to sleep underneath
when you're out here.

Sun's setting pretty quick.

That was an awfully long day.

Just getting here.

But I am now in paradise, it would seem.

Paradise in the middle of the desert.

These age-old traditional
skills are helping

to keep my mind off
my ever-growing hunger.

You know, it just
amazes me how long the

small wood in the desert
stays burning nicely.

The wood, I'm getting it from the mesquite
trees.

And it just... an arm load lasts me all
night long.

In Canada, I'd need at least five or ten
times that much with spruce and pine.

So it's great.

You just got a nice little low fire going
all night long.

And this is a good spot.

It's frosty cold out everywhere else.

But underneath this Juniper tree, it does
feel a little bit warmer for some reason.

And, of course, I've got no frost on me.

Oh, this is nice.

Now that I'm settled in here, I'll just
keep drinking tons and tons of water all

day to try and k*ll
the desire for food

because I am getting...
I'm just really hungry.

But that's what I've got to go do is start
looking for some more food.

But thankful that the water's there.

This Juniper...

I chewed on a little sprig of this Juniper
last night just before bed.

And the chemicals in it, it seems to work
on the bacteria.

I wake up in the morning and mouth tastes
pretty fresh, actually.

It also works well enough so that I can
have another smoke bath.

Ah, fresh and clean.

This agave is a very useful plant.

And if you're careful,
it has a neat trick that

you can do in case you
need a needle and thread.

If you're really careful...

Really careful.

Ah!

Ah!

You can actually pull yourself out a
needle and thread.

I'd spike from the
top of the agave plant

and I just bit below
it to break the fibers.

And then I got a really strong cord here.

Super strong.

I mean, I can't break that no matter what.

And if I, you know, want, I can peel it
apart and break apart, just tear apart the

fibers and just get it down to one single
tiny strong thread.

And I mean, that can be used as a suture
if you've got a bad gash or certainly for

clothing or anything else you need sewn
together.

And if the edge here is just a little bit
too... see that edge there?

If that's just a little bit too thick,
you can grind it down on a rock.

And you've got yourself one good strong
needle and thread.

Very useful plant.

Now I'll also take a couple of the leaves
off because I can pound them and pull

fibers out from the leaves as well that I
can use for tying.

This just breaks apart the agave leaf.

And as you can see, underneath it is all
kinds of fibers.

They're really strong and can be used for
great rope and cordage material.

Lots of good fibers there.

All I have to do is get rid of the mush
out of it.

He may not look like
much, but the javeline, which

is like a wild boar, is a
very aggressive animal.

And this one is right in my area.

It was a matter of just being as quiet as
I could and staying up high.

Getting onto little rock ledges so that he
couldn't see me.

They can't look up, so that's your only
defense.

If you're on the ground with them,
they'll chase you.

I find that if I gorge on water,
it tricks my stomach into feeling full.

And at least for a time, the possibility
of slowly starving to death seems distant.

But a surprise in this hot, dry desert is
just how much there really is to eat.

Far more than way up in
the boreal forests of the north

when it comes to what you
can pick or catch year-round.

Of course, not all of it is a choice meal.

A little grasshopper.

What you do, get as many of them as you
can.

You just hold them
this way and pull off the

head, which pulls
the stomach out with it.

And this thing, which actually stays
kicking for a while, is part of a meal.

So, for now, oh, I know what I'll do.

Once you get enough of them, you make
yourself a little...

Well, it's kind of like a...

It's kind of like a fish stringer.

Might be a bit big, this one.

And you poke it through.

There we go.

And there's one.

Let's see if I can get some more.

All right.

I'll show you against my shirt there.

You can see it now.

There we go.

It's a nice little feast.

Look at this big, juicy guy.

Look at this.

See?

They still keep kicking.

Even after their heads are completely
gone.

So... There you go.

There's my...

grasshopper kebab.

All right.

Well...

Time for my little...

grasshopper kebab.

My little treat of the day.

Now, I can roast it beside the fire,
but doing it this way on top of a rock,

like a frying rock like that, is a real
cool and easy way to do it.

I think I'll just...

put these guys on there.

Well, while I wait for these grasshoppers
to roast up nicely on my little rock fire,

I can show you these guys.

I picked these up on my way through from
the first campsite.

These are the beans from the mesquite
tree.

It's the legume family.

Good, good food source.

Now, these guys can be ground up into a
flower, or...

just eaten raw.

Mmm.

And they're kind of sweet, actually.

They're nice.

A little hard.

Now, what I want to do is...

just move that over.

I'm going to give these guys
just a last roasting, just to make

sure they're fully cooked,
because they can carry tapeworms.

So... give these guys
the last little roast here.

But I think they're cooked pretty nicely.

And...

let's see here.

Mmm.

And here's my big, big one here I got.

Mmm.

Mmm, mmm, mmm.

When you're hungry.

Mmm, mmm, mmm.

Mmm.

Wings, legs, and all.

Mmm.

And there's thousands of those guys all
around me.

So I think I'll keep eating on them for a
while.

Bon appetit.

You know, there is one insect out here
that I don't want to run into at all.

k*ller bees, or Africanized bees.

They are in Arizona.

In fact, a friend of mine was stung by a
number of them not too far from here.

They never know what's going to set them
off.

Either a snap, twig, walk a little too
close to their hive.

Whatever it is, I don't want to find out.

My days drawing to a close, the sun's
setting quickly.

I've been able to munch on grasshoppers
today.

And I ate more of those prickly pear
cactuses.

But I'm still not feeling much energy now.

I'm getting pretty tired.

And, uh, weeks starting to get long on me.

So, one more full day, and they come and
get me.

I've got back a few needed calories from
the grasshoppers and the mesquite beans.

But it won't be enough.

That's the last time I let this fire go
out.

That was easier the first time I tried it.

There's always the worry that my fire will
be out when I return to camp.

So I'm going to try a traditional method
of keeping fire.

Keeping my mind active is still my best
path to survival.

I'm getting hungry enough now.

It's time to show you what I can do with
these prickly pear.

Because these guys can be eaten as well.

Ow!

Let's cut off the rim here, because I
don't need it.

And go around some of the spikes and
spines.

See how difficult it is to work with this
type of plant.

Can you believe this is actually what the
natives farmed here?

They would farm this prickly pear cactus.

Because its fruits are so good,
and you can also do what I'm doing.

Now I want to try and cut away the skin.

It helps to have a good sharp knife for
this.

Well here, just to show you what I can eat
on this thing.

Move a few things out of the way.

Now, there's still all these little veins,
these white veins.

And you don't actually want them either.

There's actually a little line in between
the two veins.

And that's the edible stuff.

Not only that, but if you've got a bad
cut, or a burn, you can put it on it.

And it's very cooling to the skin, and
helps to cool any kind of burns or cuts.

Pull a piece off like that.

You can eat this raw, or
you can put it in, gather it all

together, and put it in a pot
and boil it, and boil the slime off.

But you know, it's not bad, not bad raw
either.

Check this out.

Fire bundle.

Worked absolutely perfectly.

If it flamed up, I kind of snuffed it out
a bit.

And now all I have to do is
add some twigs and some

grass, and blow it into
flame, and I'm in business.

Worked like a charm.

One big fat cigar.

Crikey, this here's your most classic
black widow spiderweb.

Now I'm not going to make eye contact.

I'm going to back away slowly.

Seriously, this is a classic black widow
spiderweb.

It's all gnarly and messed up.

She's hiding in there somewhere.

Her bite is about 15 times more powerful
than that of a rattlesnake.

It's just such a little bite, but it's a
potent one.

You know, you can actually
take old webs and kind of

spin them up and even
make a little string out of them.

It's a very, very strong, strong,
spun web.

You know, about the worst thing about it
being December here in the desert is that

critters like scorpions are looking for
nice, warm places to crawl into at night.

Like under some guy sleeping.

Well, it's my last full day and it's a
frosty, frosty morning, let me tell you.

You know, it amazes me
during this desert winter how

much there is to gather and
eat in terms of wild edibles.

Up in Canada, in the boreal forest, you've
got maybe six weeks to gather wild edibles.

After that, if you don't hunt and you
don't fish, you starve.

You know, what you can also get some food
source from as well is simple grass.

You don't actually swallow the grass
blades, but you chew on them.

For as long as you can, you get the
juices, which is essentially chlorophyll,

which is very good for our bodies.

Once you're done chewing, spit the blades
out.

Cold and fresh.

You know, utilizing our natural
environment to survive in and doing things

like eating live scorpions,
cutting down live trees,

are only necessary if
you truly have to survive.

I've shown some ways of surviving a very
harsh climate.

While you're out, leave only footprints.

Let's set up some good
protected areas so that

our grandchildren also
have this beauty to enjoy.

I think the toughest part of the last day
was knowing that I had to hike all of my

camera gear, all the way back to the first
location, to meet up with the crew.

And there's like this
small thing in the back

of my head, okay, are
they going to be there?

Because I don't want to do another night
out here.

And so I had that to look forward to,
the fear.

Is the crew there?

Or aren't they there?

One way or the other,
I have a long hike and I

had to get all the way
back to the first location.

Be a greatleaf.
