The BEST!! Like this Cat! Man I am so interested about the offroading/boondocking! And we thought the pics couldn't get any better (Iceland), the coast, glaciers?!? Boondocking might be very rare views/pics!
Do you ever gold-pan? Safe travels bother-man!!

Thanks guys.

ctb, I'll post some boondocking picture but I don't have any offroad picture because it's strictly prohibited to offroad in Iceland. If you get catch while offroading, you can go to jail and get a fine up to 60,000$!!! Moreover, if you anyway do it, soils are so soft that you track will remain for years and rangers have good clues to find you. Thus I haven't tried to get off the trails.
Anyway, I will soon post pictures of very remote and less traveled trails that look almost like offroading... ;-)

The pictures keep getting better. Absolutely beautiful! We just exited Death Valley and are heading up to Tahoe but we have no pictures nearly as good.

Wow. Fantastic photos as usual.

How did you control the drone? A person? Linked to your movement?
