    Nice job capturing what many will never have the opportunity to see. My son and I went up the Stairway about 20 years ago and now seeing your video brings back a fond memory. Thanks!

    Niiiiiceee!!! I feel you...trying these dream shots make your heartbeat so fast...and fingers shaking at the top i am sure. No risk no fun! Also, the fact that the weather is so difficult, makes the whole thing feel more like an adventure, or else everyone would do it! Congrats!

    Drones are such an amazing tool for cases like this and so many more. This tool can provide us a way to preserve small parts of history without facing trespass issues and preventing further degradation, contamination or theft of remaining artifacts preserving whats left.

Also need to check out the abandoned looking building that I have been eyeballing for a couple years now near the H3 tunnel entrance.

    Awesome🔥 !!! I got same gears than you but I noticed that with the DJI rc 2 I got some Rx loss when I am in channel mode manual. I can see in your video that you're in manual mode on the channel 2. Don't you have any issues ? For me the only solution to fix Rx loss is to fly in auto mode but it looks like the range and penetration is not as good as in manual mode.
