RIVER QUEST

River tracing, the art of following a river up to its source through some of the most inaccessible landscapes, is an extreme sport with increasing popularity in Taiwan. Follow a team of river tracers on a journey that will require the most advanced skills to rock climb, swim, trek, and survive in unpredictable wilderness as they attempt to trace the Sanguang River. Each mile is a feat unto itself with the threat of drowning, hard falls and boulders around every corner.
