BestHike - Top of Innsbruck, Austria
Переглядів 2314 днів тому
Directly from Innsbruck city centre, you can ride the Nordkette Cable Car to Hafelekar station (2,269m). VIDEO shows the surprisingly rugged hike from the Top of Innsbruck to Pfeishütte - for a delicious pasta lunch. Snow, ice, and loose scree in June. At minimum wear approach shoes. Most Europeans were wearing light hiking boots. Poles recommended. Trip Report besthike.com/2024/07/11/top-of-in...

Hiking Hahnenkamm, Kitzbühel, Austria
Переглядів 75Місяць тому
You’ve head of Hahnenkamm above Kitzbühel as it hosts one of the top downhill ski races every January. Like many hikes in the Alp, you can catch a cable car in the summer. Hike near the top of the mountain, and either ride down - or WALK down, as I did. Trip Report besthike.com/2024/06/25/hiking-the-hahnenkamm-kitzbuhel-austria/

CRASHED my NEW DJI Mini 4 Pro Drone 😢
Переглядів 2,1 тис.3 місяці тому
For summer 2024 I upgraded my drone from the DUMBEST in the DJI Mini line-up to the best. As I'm often alone, I wanted "follow me" capability as well as the best obstacle avoidance I could get. First flight I was impressed. BUT trying to hand catch the Mini 4 - I crashed it. Oops. Not a good start. Details besthike.com/2024/04/09/crashed-my-new-dji-mini-4-pro-drone-😢/

    like SAS i have flown drone for 10yrs from Phantom 2 to Mavic 3 Cine. The way you went for the grab is Crazy. Bring drone down to waist height, walk slowly behind it, place thumb and forefinger on the battery locks, turn sideways or just shut the motors down. A rookie mistake, but hey we all start at the same place

      @@BestHike - yes - Port Hardy is very likely. So false/misleading to include in this video because it is not true and gives people erroneous info. Not a huge deal but I'm an avid naturalist so don't like misleading information about the natural world being put out there on social media - particularly when it involves a species that has had a history going from being endangered (and extirpated from our region) to making a comeback. My request would just be to please be aware of this in the future :-). And FYI - the wildflowers have started to bloom along Jack Point - one of the earliest locations in our region.

    What a crab video! How did you prepare for this? Did you ever read any of the papers they provide.... they state more than clearly what you can expect and what the best equipment is? Did you download the past edition tracks and check the terrain? And finally did you ever watch any of the past videos from Tuscany-Trail here at YT. This is not the terrain for a road cycle with luggage on it for a world-round trip ( btw. did a world around 30 years ago for more than 2 years and had less luggage on my bike than you did ). And the whole Video gets even worse, when you read the trip-report on your web-site. You are exactly the type of person we need here, I guy flying over from canada exhausting tons of CO2 endangering himself ( and others) due to inappropriate preparation in an unsupported bike event, and then complaining about the host countries and even worse about the people living there. In addition you have only semi-knowledge about Europe ( in Germany and Switzerland you will not find any open shops on Sundays - in Italy you certainly do - I know I am German ). How dare you criticise a foreign lifestyle without any knowledge and certainly a lack of common sense Recommendation for further "adventures" - stay at home :-). Cannot imagine how you prepare your "coaching" if you are going that unprepared on a trip.
