This isn't a repair video, a maintenance video or a mod video. But, it features 3rd Gen 4runners in their natural habitat traveling off-road through a very scenic and dramatic landscape. I hope you enjoy the ride.
Here's Part 1 of our 5 day Adventure:

Thanks for rubbing it in! I was out there the week everything with covid went crazy in 2020. My wife and I came back to cell reception to a world that was going crazy!
But we really want to get back out there to explore the cabins, trails, and springs around the park.
Spent 3 days wheeling in Death Valley in October. It was a blast. Did Mengel pass too, but the video just doesn't convey the steepness of it. Did Lippencott Road and Titus Canyon. It is really a beautiful place. Spent the night at Homestake Dry Camp and Stella's Cabin.

Tim: Excellent video with better than normal coverage of the 4-wheeling aspect.
Looks like you shot this with a Pocket Osmo. If I may ask, what was/is your choice of external microphone?
Glad you like the video. Part 2 is now live.
Yes, I shot the footage outside my rig with a DJI Osmo Pocket 2. I didn't use an external mic. I just used the built in internal mic when I was shooting outside my rig. The driving footage was shot with a GoPro Hero 7 suction cupped to the inside of my windshield.

Looks like a good time was had by all. Never thought I would hear Tim yelp like a coyote.
My friend works for the USGS in California and goes to Death Valley for work now and then. He has many stories but the one he always recalls is when he was taking soil samples when suddenly he saw a tall truck racing across the dirt. Turned out to be a Unimog. Said that thing climbed like a mountain goat.
