Ep. 727: Paragliding the Path of the Monarch Butterfly - Benjamin Jordan

Benjamin Jordan is back on the Adventure Sports Podcast with another incredible journey to share. He recently retraced the iconic path that Monarch Butterflies take every year from a remote mountainous region of Northern Mexico all the way to Canada. It’s a phenomenon that science doesn’t quite understand and one that Benjamin was inspired to try himself.

A documentary about the nearly 3,000 km experience, "Fly Monarca", drops Thursday, May 6th at Midnight EST at flymonarca.com.

Listen to Benjamin’s previous episode on Adventure Sports Podcast here: Ep. 524: Vol-Bivouac Paragliding 1,200-Km of the Canadian Rockies - Benjamin Jordan
