Chasing Water

Photographer Pete McBride takes and intimate look at the Colorado River watershed as he follos the irrigation water that sustains his family's Colorado ranch, down river to the sea.

Traversing 1500 miles and draining seven states, the Colorado River supports over 30 million people across the southwest. It is not the longest or largest US river, but it is one of the most loved and litigated in the world. Today, this resource is depleted and stressed. Follow it's path with an artistic, aerial view on a personal journey to understand this national treasure. McBride teamed up with his bush-pilot father to capture unique footage and also shadowed adventurer John Waterman who became the first to paddle the entire length of the river.

Partner: Grand Valley Audubon
