Using the Google Earth "Movie Maker" option to fly a fairly accurate flight path of my Air 3 Drone from last weekend.

Solar Eclipse August 21, 2017 at the Mann Creek Reservoir near Weiser, Idaho. Drone Version I had my Canon Camcorder set up on a tripod and launched the Phantom 3 Pro Drone just seconds before total eclipse. I just let the Drone hover while I tried to keep the Sun in frame on the camcorder. I was a little overloaded watching both camera views and dealing with a 50 year old tripod so my conversation with my neighbor was challenged. The audio was merged from the Cam-Corder. During the editing process, I zoomed in to the video as much as I could. The video "noise" was significant. The video from the Cam-corder was much better but I had trouble adjusting the old tripod to keep the Sun in frame. The Cam-corder version of this Eclipse is also in my video library here on Rumble.

While touring Vancouver Island, I heard about and discovered Myra Falls in the middle of the Island. Two videos of which this is the traditional Drone View from up high. Also, I didn't realize it at the time but this place is usually crawling with people.

Waterfalls of the Hamma Hamma River Valley, Olympic Peninsula, Washington State. Including one surprise waterfall from Lena Lake at the beginning that we didn't know existed. I found out later that it's official name is "Unnamed Waterfall" and that there were no photos of it.. until now.

While visiting near Bend, Oregon, I took the Cascade Mountain Loop and stopped between South Sister and Mt Bachelor to get these views by Drone

Flirting with the trees by Drone... I stopped along the Forest Road and could hear the River but could not see it until I explored it with my Phantom 4 Pro Drone.

While on the way to Baja California from Washington State, I detoured to revisit the Hot Creek Park and the Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort where I lived and worked as a chair-lift operator for the Winter of 1970/71

Forest Fires forced me to leave the Olympic Peninsula to seek a less smoky spot. Heading toward Yakima, I decided to take a break and explore the local volcanic columns along SR 12 from White Pass.

Travelling through Central Washington State with focus on exploring the Coulees by Drone. Focus on Frenchman Coulee and Grand Coulee near Dry Falls.

A Tree-Top Tour of Lena Creek in the Hamma Hamma Recreation Area, Olympic National Forest. March 30, 2018. Using a DJI Phantom 4Pro. The featured Waterfall is actually named "Unnamed Waterfall" and appears to have no photographic presence online. At least, not that I can find… This may be the only actual photographic view of the Falls. Attempts to see it on foot proved impossible.

Second time in 2 weeks, more camping and exploring by Drone at this dispersed camp site beside Crab Creek. This time with Vanagon Friend Barrett. Special event besides exploring the far edges of the valley was watching and listening to the flocks of Sandhill Cranes.

During a 10 Day Camping trip through Eastern Washington that Included areas between Coulee City and Beverly, Washington I agreed to meet up with my Vanagon Friend, Todd at a dispersed camp site along Crab Creek. The following is a series of mostly Drone Videos during the first 3 days of March, 2021.

After a great weekend camping along Crab Creek in Eastern Washington State, I decided to look for the Basalt Columns at the Drumheller Channels. I knew they were near but didn't know exactly where. I had watched several Geology videos on YouTube by Bruce Bjornstad and wanted to try my luck. I didn't find the big set of columns that was featured in Bruce's Drone video, but I could see them in the distance over the top of the columns I was filming. Next time!
