    I lived in Northern Nevada for several years now is Southwest Oregon. The sunsets IMO are much better in the high desert than wooded mountains. You can see forever in the desert.

    There is absolutely no shame in being safe. Getting out and walking the trail ahead can make the difference between a good day, and a really bad day.

    Great channel! Free of some ideology, unnecessary comments, and arrogancy. I think you are still too shy about what you are doing. It does not matter what can be considered overlanding and what cannot. It does not matter that there are picnic tables or some sheds or more road signs that you can follow. Keep doing what you are doing and be safe! 😀

    Very enjoyable - really nice drone work. I've been watching yours for some pointers. That one of the road you took in was nice. I think one following the road either away from you or toward you would be nice. It's always nice to have 2 vehicles. Really made for some great shots both on the trail and on what I assume was Summer Lake - or maybe Abert as it had some butte cliffs in the background.

    It's fun to be that remote. Oregon is great for it as it has such a high density of roads and low density of people. Nothing wrong with an established primitive campsite - when it doesn't have other people, they can be real nice. That river was beautiful. Oregon really has some nice rivers.
