Flyin' over Zion

[tekewin]

Did a standard loop over Zion yesterday: Forest Route 2N40 to the Gabrieleno trail into Santa Anita Canyon, to the Sturtevant trail, left on the Mount Zion trail, then Lower Winter Creek trail, and back up Forest Route 2N40.

The twist on this one was the DJI Phantom quad copter Rod purchased earlier in the week, then fitted with a GoPro camcorder. He's still learning to fly it, but got some nice video from the summit on the maiden flight... http://player.vimeo.com/video/87331323
