NOLORADO 2024 - Getting things started!

I was trying to push out a video before I left for an 8 day trip to Colorado to meet up with Ian from ‪@no-lodesigns‬ , but between work, preparations for the trip, and just choosing to spend quality time with the Wife, I just wasn’t able to make it happen. In the next two videos, I’ll be bringing up an important topic (that I’ve talked about many other times), especially for those of us that choose to get out on adventures in AWD, monitoring your vehicle’s vital temperatures. For whatever reason, transmission and coolant temps can get dangerously high, and if you don’t have the means to monitor your temps, you might destroy your vehicle.
Well anyways, I’m just waking up on day 4 of our trip. So far we’ve done the Bill Moore lake trail (level 4+), Kingston peak (level 4), Loch Lommond (level 2). We actually camped right on the lake and it’s beautiful.
So in this little video, I feature my new camera, the Insta360 X4. It’s able to shoot in 8K 30 FPS and can export to a linear video clip in 2K.

don't know if it's the camera but you really are looking way slimmer. Congrats on your weight loss! I can tell by your smile your health is improving.

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Thanks! I had a lot of motivation, “DIABETES”!! I’m making the long term life style change to cut out the sugars.

[@rener44]

Jon, you’re looking good man!

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Thank you so much! I’m feeling great too! Feel younger and lighter on the feet.

[@popeyerubi1981]

Jon, you look you lost a ton of weight! Looking good bro! As usual, awesome video!

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Thanks Popeye!!

[@Ram14250]

Hey Jon!! Beautiful scenery! Love it. Wanted to ask you if you can do an update on the Passport and how she's holding up? I really enjoyed when you had gone to your buddy's shop for a tune up and a lift the last time.

[@horrse]

That 360 cam is trippy. Thought you were going to tip over a few times. 😅

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Hehe, I’ve decided I don’t exactly like the GTA video game view. Going to try to mount it to the side of my roof top tent.

[@TheOffroadCamper]

Glad to see you getting healthy. Let me know if you wanna get back out cycling.

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Let’s get on a hike 😃

[@ZZProductionsVA]

Such a great trip and we’re only on day 2, baby!

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Epic!

[@williamkennedy2069]

Nice ride! But I do not like the 360 camera

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Thanks for your feedback. Definitely looks weird, and it’s my first go at using this camera. But does help tell my stories when I’m the sole camera man, which is much of the time. The plan is to not over use it 😃

[@agent_double_a]

Looking healthy sir 👍🏻.

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

@@agent_double_a Ty Sir!!

[@LilBigfootOverlanding]

The X4 is a great 360 camera! I have mounts outside my rig for it🤙

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

I’m loving it so far. Especially for Broll. I just plop it down, D warp it, and zoom in. This thing is magical

[@benrupp04]

Do you have any videos where you talk about the green wrap on your Passport?

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Yes I do, search for “JonDZ vinyl wrap”

[@benrupp04]

@@JonDZ_Adventuring thanks

[@michaelptm2269]

Cool sunrise shot at around 8min… Quick question, is their any type of maintenance on the Honda AWD system?

[@owequitit]

Just the rear differential and transfer case fluid changes.

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

this 👆, thanks

[@nickcivic21]

Sooo Jon I heard you like them off-road?? lol couldn’t resist my Kendrick joke… thought idea on new passport 2026?? Being completely diff then pilot for the positive supposedly

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

I saw the teaser a few days ago. I like the boxier look.

[@ulisesrivera8185]

What does your insurance look like? Do the Mods and use play a factor in your premiums?

[@michaelharrington8543]

I live in glenwood springs. Hit me up if you want to hit some trails in the area

[@JonDZ_Adventuring]

Oh dang! We were in Glenwood springs in this video. Just camped up one of the trails. I’m replying from Gunnison right now. Plan to be in Ouray tonight.

[@michaelharrington8543]

@@JonDZ_Adventuring i immediately recognized it. Did you continue going up transfer trail after camping. Its gets quite a bit more challenging. Currently to much for my vehicle. My maverick tremor is still stock, but it won't stay that way for long

[@Oldplacerminer99]

​@michaelharrington8543 I'd rather run transfer trail then that clogged up Ouray area better yet pearl pass.
