Reply to "Epic overland trip that started with the AZ Run"

It's been a couple days, but I finally got some time to upload some more video and pictures. I'll start with the video from the first day of the AZ run, it shows the drone crashing it the beginning (not sure why it decided it needed to land). That was the first time it has ever done that and it did it two other times on the trip. I'm glad that didn't happen over Alstrom Point...

 

The second day of the AZ Run had us running out to Toroweap, the narrowest point in the Grand Canyon and the first overlook for the run. We stopped off in Fredonia for fuel and headed out to Toroweap. You can see the stucco look covers the body damage on the S-10 pretty well:

There was beautiful scenery everywhere you looked, even if we were just parked on the side of the road waiting for people to catch up:

They made us drop our trailers at the ranger station, something about 20 foot max length.  We wouldn't have had any issues, but the guy with the badge makes the rules...  I wish I would have known they were going to do that, I would have left it in Fredonia instead of dragging it 95% of the way to Toroweap.

After lunch and taking a boatload of pictures, we headed back through Fredonia through Lookout Canyon to our night 2 campsite in the pines at 7200 feet.  We watched a movie that night so I had the screen up.

I flew the drone in this canyon and it did the crash landing thing on me 2 more times.  I chalked it up to loss of GPS signal, but that shouldn't have happened the first time.  It never happened again after getting out of this canyon:

I still need to edit the video from the drone, maybe I'll get it up later today or tomorrow.
