Looks like everyone had a great time...

Looks like a blast. Sad I missed it.

I hope you 5 guys enjoyed it as much as I did, playing tour guide you never know if you are going too fast or too slow, but seems like we stayed together pretty good 90% on the run. No dust would have made it that much better. Thanks for letting me be parts of the group, I had a blast even though I ran back and forth from home at night.

I will check out the New River Unit trails that are NW of Windrock and S of Brimstone even though they all run continuously uninterrupted on nearly 400,000 acres combined.

I have skirted a few and the wife has no tolerance when more than one wheel in is the air. There is some excellent challenges over there from my 2014 rides. Just need to get a better idea of how to get around them to form an organized loop vs. wandering aimlessly in what seems never ending mountains.

I'm ready for another run, anytime and won't let some meeting interfere with my run next time. If anyone is going to be in the area will be happy to show them around. The best scenery will be in 2 weeks as the leaves really change.

Sorry my videos are not the best quality all were shot on an original Gopro that is about 6 years old. Hinted to wife about Gopro Hero 5 and Karma drone for Christmas. That would makes for some awesome footage being as it is compact and packable.

Before you look into the karma look at this one. Lots more features and way smaller

DJI’s folding drone is smaller and better at tracking than GoPro’s offering

That is Tackett Creek just north and east of Royal Blue Campground. Several youtube video of it.

But the camera is integrated, can't mount on rollbar like hero 5 camera.

Some of my few pics I took.

Notice anything strange here?


Here's camp Friday night. It's. It much be we didn't start setting up until ~9:00pm

True but you have to buy camera separate from the GoPro drone. And this one has obstacle avoidance and gps tracking. If one were to buy it without remote it's only a 100 more and it will actually follow you in trails without remote and not hit anything. 1/3 longer flight time and faster. If you read up in it she's pretty impressive even without remote. I'd seriously consider that then save a 100 and do a garmin camera. Be a nice package and there's no way to lose either one being they both have gps.

This is an awesome pic after I explain. You can't see it in the picture but there are wind turbines on the farthest mountain range. This pic was taken Saturday morning and our goal was to make it to the windmills before dark. We actually accomplished that easily.
