- In 2022 I trekked the Three Passes and Everest Base Camp over 17 days in October and November 2022. The trip was organized by Take On Nepal (www.takeonnepal.com.au/trekki.... We were a group of four hikers, with two guides, two porters and one guide in training.
Video includes animated 3d Route Maps showing the path we took each day.

Great photography and animation. Done the EBC via Renjo and Cho la back in May 2023 so much of it is vey familiar. Good memories
Excellent video editing. loved it
The drone shots are stunning.
Thanks for sharing this.
Very, very nice video!! Awesome editing !!
Very nice photography ...congrats!
Awesome video!! Thank you for the detailed content. Thank you for visiting Nepal. I hope you trek more trails in the future. Take good care.💌
Thank you for the kind words. Glad you enjoyed it.
Nice one!! Loved the graphics. I did in in 2019 counter clockwise. Self guided.
Glad you enjoyed it. You were fortunate to do it self-guided when you did as It's looking like it'll be difficult to trek without guides in Nepal in the future.
Congratulations this is a stunning video , outstanding photography. You have truly captured the atmosphere not only of the natural beauty and ruggedness of the Himalaya but the experience of the trek itself. Just outstanding , well done . Perhaps you should tweak the algorithm. This should have hundreds of thousands of views.
Wow, hands down one of the most enjoyable videos of this region. Only complaint, it ended too soon.
This is so good , but i think the backsound was too loud , we'd love to enjoy relaxing video especially the journey in Nepal, just my opinion .. ❤
hi. Can you do EBC only, Annapurna Circuit only, Annapurna Base camp and other famous treks in 3D route maps and upload like you did on this one? I tried but gave up. Whenever we do these treks, we can forward these videos to friends and family so that they know what we have been upto. Preferably on those fly throughs, all the peaks can also be clearly labelled,, steps and Kilometers mentioned..etc so that they know how tough these treks are or maybe make a video on how you did these videos..we can try ourselves. Many thanks again. These are much better than google maps flythroughs
Hi. Glad you liked the maps. I was also frustrated with Google maps and other options so I created these from scratch. The process is quite involved and requires combining route data, personally tracked data, satellite imagery, and then adding 3d text elements and animations in Blender all done manually. So while I'd love to provide maps for the locations you mention, it is a LOT of work and not really feasible. Maybe one day I can make a video showing an overview of the process so you can make your own. Best of luck with your hikes and your videos!
@@gavinski98109 yes pls.."its like teach a man to fish"
Wow. what a video! I'm headed to Three Passes in a week. Gorgeous photography as well--did you bring a big telephoto for some of those shots?
I used a relatively compact 28-200mm zoom lens. One person in our group had a 200-400mm zoom that was pretty big and heavy and didn't use it a lot.
@@gavinski98109thanks, good to know! I have a pretty lightweight Nikon 1 system. My main walk around is a 10-100 (27-270mm full frame equivalent). I also have a 70-300mm lens that is a full frame equivalent of 810mm. It's about 2.5 pounds and I have been wondering whether to take it or not. If the composition of some of your shots had relied on a big telephoto, that would definitely have tipped me into carrying the bigger lens! Sounds like I'll be fine with my main lens and a smaller wide-angle lens.
I have included some of my friend's shots using the 200-400mm telephoto in this video, but not many. I think he used it mostly for some wildlife shots at lower elevations as well as capturing details in distant mountains. But for me, I never felt I needed more reach and I was glad to be not carrying the extra weight. 5lbs feels like 10lbs at that elevation. And I was glad I never had to change lenses because it is really dusty in the valley, and really cold up high. @@gpurcell
hi! very good video! question: how hard did you had to train before you go? I did EBC back in 2019 and now I'm aiming for 3 passes next year. was is super super super difficult?
I trained for about 6 months for the trek, mostly running and hiking. If you have already done EBC then you know what to expect, and you can probably tackle 3 passes if you are in good shape. The passes were slightly more challenging than EBC, mostly because of the altitude and the length of the hikes each day. The 3 passes were much less busy/ crowded than EBC.
How do you do the progress along the route thing using the terrain?
I'm not sure I understand the question. The 3d map is a visualization of the route we walked following the paths through the region.
@@gavinski98109 yeah how’d you do it? What software did you use to create it?
OK, I understand. The primary software was Blender 4.0. I used a plugin called "Open Street Maps" to select the terrain in Nepal, which was then imported into Blender. I imported a number of maps at different resolutions depending on the detail required, which were then tiled together to create a giant map. I then imported the trekking route as a KML file from Alltrails. I used the KML to create a path in Blender, that was then animated using two different textures. Then it was just a case of animating the cameras along the paths. I hope this helps. @@nicspics
@@gavinski98109 sounds a bit harder than I thought it would be I thought it was google earth or something
