Well, the water's dropped quite a bit. It just means that I don't have any water to drink right now, so I'll have to try to dig it deeper. Starting to get a little bit of water pulling up, which I would expect. But I'm kind of at the limit of what I can do by hand here.

It's been almost 2 months since desert nomad Tobias first arrived in this Arizona Canyon. Each passing day is a test of his survival know-how. I don't think I can keep digging like this much longer. This trip is a lot about challenging myself and trying to see if I am capable of doing what I think I should be able to do as a human, which is go out onto the Earth and provide for myself.

My whole life I've been trying to figure out how to live out here, and hopefully I can stay within my limits and still do this intensive journey. It's probably going to be enough to where I can get a little water tonight, but at the rate that the water is dropping, I'm not going to be able to keep getting water out of here reliably. I pretty much have realized that the well is not going to provide me water much longer. It's just kind of a losing battle.
