She is quite good at making these videos.

She does get even better as mentioned. I like that a lot of her cuts are on a heavier beat of music. They don't feel jumpy even though she'll make several cuts in a minute. It has a nice flow.

I'm way behind but I did see a couple of drone vids and I really like that. I've been looking into getting a MAVIC mini to goof around with. I don't know what she's using but some of them can track a given target (non- Predator/Reaper) so I'd like to see it following her as she rides. Has she done that yet (assuming her drone has that capability.

The YT interface is really the bane of video viewing.

I believe she lists all the gear she is using on her web site...

Yes she has done that. I believe she can also use way points for the drone. Speed is an issue for following, she has that worked out too.
I don’t think the mavic mini has a follow me mode, however there are ways around it. I’m hoping the next generation of under 250gm drones will incorporate the way points and follow me technology.

In a recent episode (S2 Ep 58, 59, or 60?) she has a few seconds of footage of the drone trailing her. Spectacular.

Yeah it has some kind of rudimentary tracking in "quickshot" mode but no real "follow me" active tracking. At 249gm don't expect a lot, but active tracking would be high on my list of future features.

I'll check that out. I did see some footage of her in a field of flowers.
 
Just watched the segment where she departed La Paz. Urban combat riding in the extreme. She showed impressive skill and aplomb getting through that mess.
 
I love all the cultural, geological and ecological information she packs into her videos (besides all the awesome scenery). I can remember reading about the reed islands as a kid... whole different thing to see them in everyday use. I have learned so much about South American wildlife!

Different type of report

I'm happy to see more reports of the places she's at than just the places she's passing through or her accommodations. So I'll call that a silver lining of the containment effort.
 
Well, I'm only on S1-E73, where she's still in Tajikistan. My wife and I really enjoy her videos and her unabashed desire for adventure... not much seems to intimidate her, and I love her attitude about everything!

She really is a very impressive lady. I'll bet her parents are both proud and a little apprehensive.

Was thinking the same thing last night as we watched. My daughter is 24 and on her own, but if this were her, not sure I could watch if I didn't know she came out of it OK, which I'm sure her parents do know.
