Title: More pics from the trip
Post by: McGirr on July 21, 2014, 07:07:10 PM
The amount of incredible photos taken on this trip is unbelievable.  :cup:

It deserves a separate area for members who took them on the trip to post them up.

Please feel free to upload them here plus add your adventure from the trip.

Darned tree.

Was a pity that everyone ran out of batteries before the really interesting stuff at the end. I've gone through all the vdo I think, and can't find any of that really steep rocky climb near the end of the day.

Great vid Scot, and yes very disappointed not to do Nolans with you guys, would have defo been keen...oh well next time....I did the Frenchmans by myself, so that off sets the disappointment a bit, the major crossing isn't the same as Nolans, prob deeper and running faster  ;D ;D, good solid bottom (very big rocks) and a great entry and exit to which made it great fun....

Defo up for it next time for sure, oh BTW I hooked into Palm creek, and the start of the OTL that we missed a few days after you guys headed off, it was fun also.

I use the standard stick on ones that come with the camera. I've used the suction cup mount but it had come loose twice. Also use

But it twists out of position at times.

I don't know the bar mount. I want something that can be mounted wide and low so you get perspective. And something that doesn't fall off.
