For some of these sites, this journey produced some of the only digital media that exists documenting them. Imagine what could be done with the proper resources.
Imagine the advancements that could be made for archaeological surveying, the history that lay buried waiting for acknowledgment, and the discoveries to be made piecing together the narratives of our human past.
It is my hope and goal to be able to bring awareness to the current threats these ancient locations face, as well as put together a team of researches, archaeologists, and a professional film crew to investigate and document these sacred places.
These sites deserve so much more than just me, a couple of GoPro’s, and my phone.
You can donate directly to help support a 2025 expedition to Peru to document and preserve the legacy of newly discovered and forgotten ancient sites.
Your contributions will help with better equipment to record and capture these sites, any permits that might be needed for various work, compensation for the time of professionals in their respective fields (as well as any locals whom may help with these endeavors), and I would love to actually utilize a drone equipped with lidar (but that depends on how well the crowdsourcing goes).
Additionally, contributions will also help with some of the logistics like lodging, gas, food and tolls - as I can personally attest to these things adding up (as I somewhat irresponsibly eviscerated my savings to make the solo expedition happen earlier this year). Those close to me might suggest removing "somewhat" from the prior sentence, but I had to follow my dream believing in its importance and value.
