The Lost Sea Expedition: Covered Wagon Journey Across America

Bernie Harberts and mule Polly with their homemade covered wagon, Lost Sea Expedition

My mule Polly and I spent 395 days crossing the Lost Sea, a vanished sea that once covered the Great Plains, in a homemade covered wagon. We filmed the whole voyage, from tumbleweed gales and prairie fever to the Skunk Lady and the Creationist. The Lost Sea Expedition premiered on Rocky Mountain PBS. Stream free on YouTube.
