  • With my RTT off my Gladiator I went out to get back to basics camping out of my hammock and cooking over the fire. No fancy tents or cooking setups this time. Just the basics in the rain.

I know it makes for more challenges, but would be great information shared. All the best!

    Great road trip! Now we want to know for all those river crossing shots, did you actually set up the tripod on each one? Then go back. Or did you magically get the drone out in the rain. That was a lot of retrieval of the camera while it was raining. We appreciate it.
    It would be cool to have someone filming you as you film each trip. I don't think folks have any idea what goes into videos like this. Your story telling is so nicely incorporated.
    And we started to think a wedge camper was going on the truck. Won't be long according to my magic 8 ball. 😅
    Thank you again for taking us along.

    The alternate line comment kinda rubbed me wrong with the fact that parks and wildlife makes those alternate lines for their vehicles and if others have larger vehicles can take that line with no worries. My good friend who works for parks and wildlife does that all the time for precautions and forest emergencies. Also allowing larger vehicles to go through. So those lines “should” be there.
