Well done, nice shot composition and structure, not much in the way of landscape/flora etc though....no gaiters in the mud either, any reason for that?

Yeah I got some alright pics of some flora and couple good ones of the landscape while the views lasted but decided to keep it videos only. I had some mud gaurds that are up under my pants. Keeps all the grit and moisture out. Personaly I not a fan of gaiters! :shock: Unless they swim in the bayous of the deep south of the USA :lol:

Ditto above comments. Loved the journey. I almost felt like I was out there. I did note of your interesting pack mounting technique. I have seen this technique before, but with the weight I carry, it's *&%$#! difficult to chuck my pack over my head.

Thanks eh,

I find that is the easiest way to put the pack on even when its gets heavy. once over 25KG Ill find a way to put it on then stand. Save all the twisting and turning only to have the back fail :)
