    Have you ever considered investing in a porta-power system? they are made to hydraulically push dents out of cars but there are a few of the units that would probably help with boulder removal. Although it would add some weight to your carry pack. It might be a good idea to get yourself a small pull wagon to help carry tools.

      I know nothing about drones but it seems logical that one could record and save a preflight then let the drone auto pilot repeat that??? is that how you got those shots from above while your hands were prospecting?
