Onion Creek Loop

In this episode, my wife and I take on the Onion Creek Loop in a Honda Pilot. Yes there was one heckler on the trail regarding my Pilot, but we also found a great group of guys from .‪@ultimateadventureoffroadcl542‬ . With my two inch lift kit from ‪@ReadyLIFTVideoPortal‬ skid plat from ‪@nolodesign7862‬ and confidence from ‪@GotterAdventure‬ we completed this trail in a ‪@Honda‬ Pilot.

It was sketchy at times, but we got it done.

Great share my friend. Heading up to Grand Junction/Moab area next month to do a little geezer gravel riding with my Colorado friend in the McInnis Canyon area. Think my legs and lungs are ready but 🤪

We hiked Granstaff canyon, you can rent a Jeep too.

Nicely done video. To help ease a windshield-mounted GoPro's overheating problem, I run my windshield defroster with the thermostat set to a low temperature. It helps some, though if you have the fan too high that can contribute a lot of noise to the audio track from the GoPro. Thanks for having me along for the ride!

[@ericscamping]

Thanks Mark! Now that is a good idea. I will definitely try that next time.

[@adventureoutdoors3005]

Which GoPro do u use?

[@DxDOverland]

@@adventureoutdoors3005 I use three. Two GoPro Hero 2s, one in a skeleton housing to aid cooling, the other in a waterproof housing, and a Hero 7 Black in a skeleton housing to allow access to audio for mics and power for continuous operation. The latter one is usually on the windshield. All are subject to overheating problems, but especially whichever one is on the windshield.

Great video; your dad would have loved watching this. Gorgeous scenery!

[@ericscamping]

Thanks Lilly! I think your right. At Dad’s funeral, one of the volunteers at the nursing home told me that dad spoke up when they were watching a video of a national park. “I think Eric has been there,” he said. Nice of them to remember and share!
