Yes, I think the thing I appreciate about their video's is the completeness of them. The cinematography, narration, etc....you can tell they know what they are doing and enjoy it. I feel it's like watching (and listening to) a Warren Miller movie. The only other adventure type videos I enjoy as much are Ronny Dahl's.They can make a video, cant they? Great videos, but it does make me believe I need more gear...(not going as long as them so I don't) but, it's great to see the how and why they are set up like they are. Also, the constant reminders of safety/recovery/first aid is very insightful and helpful for those of us less experienced.
It was watching the EO Yukon/Alaska series that really got my Wife interested in the whole adventure expedition type of travel. It didn't take long before our Xterra was fully transformed and was ascending Engineer Pass among other places. We've now sold the Xterra and have embarked on a more ambitious plan with long term goals, involing the purchase and mod of a Tundra and the order of a Four Wheel camper.
