Finding our way. Navigation and communication - GrizzlyNbear Overland

[@brunozuger9307]

I fully confirm Michael Raddie‘s comment. A fantastic video. Unfortunately, we are not travelling yet, but are preparing ourselfs. This video closes the gaps where I was struggling the most; planing and navigation and as well dealing with foreign languages. Thank you so much for your advice for the explained Apps!!

[@Simonandisla]

That’s brill Leigh. All great and informative tips and hints 👍👍👌

[@badgerpa9]

Stay safe guys! Very good video.

[@mareksleczka]

Excellent!!! Greetings from Poland👍🏻🌏💫

[@robertkelsow-geall7395]

More tips and advice in this video than ANY others I've seen. Great work. #fuji lol

[@vladimirsebik393]

Thanks for the application types I was surprised that you have our Czech mapy.cz 👍😊

[@IntrepidYouTuber]

Worthwhile info, great post

[@jmena19]

Very nice and detailed video of the apps you frequently use, actually it's funny we do use quite a few of those you mentioned! Thanks for sharing! Very cool!

[@andrewcgillespie]

Thank you Leigh. Very helpful. Love to you and Steph.

[@josephstrub2771]

Great stuff! Well done and very useful. Like your videos very much. Both of you take care and stay safes

[@defender132]

Great information, thank you guys👍

[@NorthernMigrationTravel]

Great information, thank you! Another awesome offline map is Pocket Earth. A life saver when travelling across South America

[@scottharris6423]

Thank you. Very helpful info. Be safe.

[@e_v_a_l_ca]

I discovered Windy a few weeks ago and LOVE it

[@carlredmond3642]

Thanks !! Great information

[@rogergregory5981]

That's the best information I've heard for overlanding ever, thanks very much and happy travels

[@TWX1138]

Your appearance at 1:49 reminds me of Travis McMahon and Anthony Sharpe as they appear as Bert Johnson and Cec Yates in _Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries._ I think it's partly the hat.

[@STYLEHUAHINONAIR]

very nice.

[@williamaktan]

Thanks for sharing, stay safe!

[@gilliandearle9771]

That was very informative Leigh. Well done. I just wish I had the brain to be able to use this technology. Lots of love your Mum xxxx

[@GrizzlyNbearOverland]

I'm sure you could figure out all of that mum, I got my brains from you remember haha xxx

[@TopanKJ]

excellent stuff! already checked a few aps and downloaded them !Thanks !!

[@Eric_4D]

This was so informative, , as a family we do a lot of outback touring of Australia, we use Hema both digital and paper maps. Also Wiki Camps for campsites etc.. Also use Sygic for on road navigation as it has an awesome HUD mode.. During this period of mass lockdown throughout the world that no doubt is affecting Leigh and Step was wondering if Steph could do a vid on editing tips and tricks. Once again though Leigh and Steph have made a cracking video,,😀😁

[@leighdearle5965]

You must of read Steph's mind... How does this Friday for video editing, equipment and tips and tricks sound? 😉

[@jumiti]

Great ! Thx ! Will be useful for our one year travel ... if we can start one day ...

This was so helpful Leigh. Thank you.

[@montyjohnstone4822]

Very informative and very well done.👍👍👍

[@jimmysando99]

Excellent video mate. Super informative with excellent hands-on experience on what does and what hasn't worked for you guys! I often use offline google maps and various free topo map apps for my trips in Australia, though I'm sure this is not an option in many of the countries and remote locations you have visited on your travels. Keep up the great work, I'm very keen to get back out in the bush once the restrictions are somewhat relaxed... Cheers from lockdown 😃

[@jackbego6571]

Thank you for the very helpful information. I really enjoy following your journey.

When Leigh showed Frenchy as the signature in the signature app it cracked me up, small things amuse small minds I guess 🤣😄👍

[@leighdearle5965]

I was wondering who'd be the first to pick that up 😂

[@4bnewb969]

Leigh Dearle I chuckled at that last shot of the old Rangie with a hike tent on top ...the original RTT I guess

[@leighdearle5965]

@@4bnewb969 it's a French friend of ours parents crossing Africa in the 70s north to south through the middle. A route that's unfortunately not possible these days... Classic RTT 😜

[@4bnewb969]

Leigh Dearle certainly a lot more improvisation back in those days. You guys stay safe. ...Cheers ( from a locked down Melbourne Australia).

[@saschaeuler7883]

Well that is what I call a very very useful information , I'm not an overlander but it does for fill my lack of information about all what's possible and not traveling around the world. The only app I use is windy and it is really useful. Well then.. good on you guys thanks for sharing and wish you all the best .

[@robertcorminboeuf2774]

Looked up some of those apps , wonderful thanks again . From Steve stott in sutherlin Oregon u.s.a. ......P .S . Awesome video . Thanks for helping us all be able to over land better , by sharing these kind of videos .

We'll go by what you said...the mountain was named after the camera 😁😁😎📷🗻. Good information mate.

Of course it was... 😜

I thought they were both named after the apple? 🤔

[@BUZZTHETOY]

hi, very good thank you !

[@yorkchris10]

Très intéressant, la transposition de format pour faire avancer. La future est ouverte.

[@michaelraddie7399]

That was by far the most helpful video for a would be traveler I have ever seen, and Nicely edited. One of the biggest hurdles for people is fear of finance, mechanical and communication to mention but a few your videos go a long,long way to alleviating those fears for people who lets face it REALLY want to do what your doing.

[@leighdearle5965]

Thank you so much, we will try to make a video on budget and finances one day also 😉

[@cobblesices9986]

Leigh Dearle look forward to that, maybe you could explain how the whole patreon works, that would be fascinating for everyone. As you know some people can rent out their houses or sell their businesses to finance such a trip or maybe they take regular breaks to fly back home and work to replenish finances what story’s have you heard from your fellow travellers. Maybe one idea that could be helpful is if you could give a rough idea of what you have spent yearly? maybe chart out the monthly fluctuations that occur during that year? We have followed you from the start and seen the many breakdowns, accidents, purchases and the many great meals you have both had so would be nice to see how we could all budget for the same level more or indeed less. I guarantee you one thing, given the current circumstances a lot of people are re-evaluating their lives and loss of freedom at this moment maybe you should seriously consider a book! DVD even.

[@simoncbroadley9577]

very helpfull ,

[@manolob63]

Salut Leigh ! this is a goooood feedback vidéo for "Apps " utility ! thanks a lot greet the "Frenchie" and take (both) care !

Hi, guys, very interesting information thanks. Stay healthy :-))

[@eisbar7354]

Nice work guys. Some of those Apps are amazing.

[@leighdearle5965]

Thanks mate, very helpful apps and all user friendly. I get frustrated with over complicated technology so I keep it as simple as possible 😉

[@eisbar7354]

Leigh Dearle yeah I know what you mean. I had some of your Apps already but others were new. Thank you.

[@sunshinecatcher8779]

Thanks mate

[@AubreyRMoore]

Trust you two are safe and healthy. Thank you for another very informative video. I would love to know what devices you are using for the navigation and specifically how you mount them in the Landy when mobile. Cheers all the way from South Sudan. Stay safe!!

[@laurentcaraland1404]

Merci pour toutes ces infos ! :)

[@stephenfrench4417]

so i must ask map reading steph or GPS app (caution wrong answer may seriously damage your health) so my Suzie tells me lol all the apps in the world wont totally replace the good old compass and sheet map wishing you both all good health in this bad time be safe and good journeys

[@leighdearle5965]

No comment 😂 When I was younger I used to go bush walking with a compass and map to practice orienteering, a great skill to have and I still remember how to find due North using the hands on my watch 😉

[@ClewleysOnTour]

Great to see what seasoned pro s use on the road. Have you looked at Pocket Earth pro? There is a free version but with the pro you get contours. Very similar to MapsMe but I love the contours feature Stay safe folks

[@PabloP169]

Very handy and comprehensive. Where is your current "bolt hole" and are you tied down somewhat by CovID19?

[@ecekicer]

Very informative. Thanks. Just one question, You talked about an instant translator which translates on screen. That is not a free app I guess..

[@leighdearle5965]

Yes it's free, it's part of the Google translate app 😉

[@sylvainchantal7983]

Bonjour Steph! G'day Leigh! I find you two as well as your videos very inspiring!!! Thanks for sharing your journey with us all! I didn't quite get the name of this instant image translation app that you guys use. Sorry I watch this section of the video several times but still don't get it. Merci d'avance et bonne continuation de voyage!!! You guys are awesome!!!!

[@GrizzlyNbearOverland]

It's Google translate app

[@sylvainchantal7983]

Thank you guys! My version of Google translate must be too old since it doesn't offer me this option, hence the confusion! Merci beaucoup à vous deux et soyez prudents!! J'ai bien hâte de voir vos prochaines vidéos!!! Cheers!!

[@michow.buecher7290]

fantastic video and good advice. i am using mapsme (previously mapswithme) and osmand since their beginning. just wanted to add one thing: you forgot to mention that both of them rely on openstreetmap, where basically every traveller can contribute tracks, waypoints and the like. Once you upload your tracks to openstreetmap they will appear in osm based apps like mapsme, osmand in a couple of weeks. so you can both rely on other travellers experiences and contribute to the ones that follow your steps. take care and stay safe!

[@leighdearle5965]

Yes that's true, I actually did talk about all of that and so much more... The original video was more than 20 minutes long so I cut a lot of stuff out otherwise I think most people would get very bored 😜

[@haditorkmani2600]

Thanks

[@Jd10401]

You can use HERE. It's free and you can it offline. Maps are more detailed and regularly updated. It's way better than MAPS ME. I haven't had the opportunity to use it for off road navigation.

[@wyvern2]

many thanks for all the fab adventures that you have posted and the info here - just quick question but what devices are you using for your navigation ? we have a mixture of iPhones and Android tablets ... just curious what you use. many thanks and enjoy Japan !

[@CaptainOccitanie]

Vraiment tres interessant !!!

[@robertvanderploeg410]

Great Video. Thanks a lot. While navigating with apps on your phone or tablet do you never have problems that your device overheats? I had this problem often in Africa. Once I got totally lost in Lusaka.....

[@leighdearle5965]

Hello mate 😉 No we've never had this problem... Even during 45 degrees in Kazakhstan and 2 years on the road in Australia. Only one time my phone overheated and that was winter, it was in front of the hot air vent 😜

[@Olivbnx]

Wow, nice job for a premiere ;) This is very helpful thank you, I will definitely have a look at some of those apps for my next trip ! Take care !

As you mentioned 'Defender' ... You may have a look to Navigator by mapfactor (I'm not related to them ;). In there you can set different car profiles which include a speed definition... we do have eg one profiler for the Series III and one for the Defender. Series profile is set to no highway, the Defender is set to max speed on highway to 90km/h ... often this does result in a different routing than it would be calculated as 130 on highway for standard car... : navigatorfree.mapfactor.com/en/ navigatorfree.mapfactor.com/en/support#know-area
