Before you get a drone get yourself a decent tripod setup, maybe a slider, and purchase/learn to use basic editing software. The latter is quite simple to use, and will help you make your videos more exciting, dynamic, and narrative.
I'm a professional photographer who recently started dipping...
More loosies from this weekend's adventures. We hit up 5 state forests and traveled through some really diverse terrain . . .
SATURDAY:
SUNDAY:
Nice little steam crossing with no electrical faults was an excellent finish to the weekend.
Been integrating some video...
Dropping a couple loosies from recent adventures here for those who don't catch my insta stories. Fun times are being had in The Adventure Wagon[emoji769] as summer approaches!

I don't have the part number for the OEM hitch. If I dig it up I'll look into it. Several people I know use the smaller curt hitch which is inexpensive and a super-easy install. You may be fine with that for your needs. The OEM hitch costs more, requires cutting the bumper, and also has dealer...
1. 225/70r16s may fit without a lift if your suspension is in good shape and you don't run aftermarket wheels with wider offset and/or spacers. I have both of the latter AND worn suspension in bad need of a refresh so I get rear rub on the fenderliners over large bumps. Doesn't bother me too...
Looks awesome! Love me a wagon build. I find myself so jealous of the landscape out that way. But I suppose it's a case of "the grass is greener syndrome" to some extent. We have great terrain out east as well, it's just tricky to find sometimes...

Gonna have to update this to include deep, watery mud pits after an incident this past weekend where I temporarily disabled my vehicle by shorting something (CANBUS? CEM? Fuel pressure sensor) and completely lost all power. Wasn't very deep at all, and I was mildly surprised to say the least...
Awesome. I will have my 2 + 4 year old boys in tow if I can't get coverage. We just did our "longest" trip yet--3 days 2 nights in Bald Eagle State Forest--and they are getting better every time.
This should be fun either way!

I really want to try and do this after looking at some more pics of this trail. As of now, those dates are open for me. Just a question of whether I can have my folks watch the kids, otherwise they come with.

In all seriousness folks, if you haven't watched the above video, PLEASE DO. It is rally gold. Not to mention a profound Inspiration for my approach to automotive enthusiasm.

I'll use this quote as a jumping off point for my latest adventure write-up [emoji41]
While I beat on the wagon regularly, and am admittedly not up-to-date on all my PM items, is like to think that I'm generally a pretty ok wagon owner who knows how to keep his trusty steed running and in good...
Dude!
Such an awesome trip report and you killed it with the photos as I have come to expect.
I get so jealous of the landscape out there. I'm an east coast boy at heart, but my pops is from Northern Cali and I spent much of my childhood running around on that coast: Highway 1, redwoods, the...
I too would love to see some good van builds on OB. Especially some non-Westy ones [emoji16]. Not a damn thing against Westys, they've just become so popular I find it inspiring to see other capable modified vans. If there are any older builds of this variety here I've missed, long-time members...
I made several "small box-worthy" purchases as part of my larger basecamp reboot/vehicle preparedness initiative (more about this elsewhere later)
A couple bits and bobs that could potentially be of interest.
- Dynaplug compact Tire Repair Tool
- Set of retractable ratchet straps (sooooo nice...
