I’ve been using a drone to supplement my overlanding photography over the past few years, and while I knew there were various pitfalls one could encounter when using a drone to get a different (and sometimes spectacular) perspective of various trails, I never saw this coming…
Please excuse...
El-Dracho, it was an inflatable kayak that we planned to use at Tuktoyuktuk to see Pingo Canadian Landmark. Unfortunately, the day we were there the winds were pretty strong and we didn’t feel it was safe to take it out. My significant other later got to use it in Banff National Park, so she was...
I finally got around to taking a longish (11,000 miles) road trip that I’d been wanting to do for 40 years: Virginia to the Arctic Ocean and back, with a side trip through Alaska so I could visit my 50th state. Mostly decent weather, better roads than expected, and lots of mosquitoes. :relaxed:
Counting down the weeks until we take №5 from from Virginia to Canada to the Arctic Ocean to Alaska and then back home again. I’ve been wanting to do this trip for me entire life but never had the time until I retired.
What does "overlanding" mean? Why, I think the answer is obvious: it's building a rig that could travel though deepest Africa during the worst of conditions and driving said rig between Holiday Inns as you travel across your chosen continent. That's certainly the way I have always interpreted it.
Recreated the ending scene of Cast Away using DJI Mavic Mini on our recently overland trip from Virginia to Colorado. One of my favorite movies. :blush:
I posted a few of these before on this site, so I hope it's not a breach of etiquette to post them again, but here's a few from a cross-country trip we took last September. It was new Mavic Mini and I'd never used a drone before.
@samuraj, My significant other demanded I let her drive down Shafer Trail, so I gave up the diver seat. She cringed and cried the entire way down (and I recorded the whole thing on video). :)
Sharing a few images from our recent overland trip from Virginia to Colorado, Utah, and Nevada.
I added a small drone to my photographic arsenal days before the trip, but I used it more as a flying selfie stick than the movie camera that it is. Interestingly, I found myself reaching for my...
Our planned road-trip guest from England just had her flight cancelled due to COVID, so we're modifying our flight plan a bit to spend a bit more time in Utah.
Heading West this summer to do, hopefully, a couple of "Jeep trails" in Colorado and Utah while hitting national parks along the way. I love doing these types of adventures with folks who might not have done this sort of thing very often, so the fact that my fellow adventurers this time 'round...
