Porcupine Rim Trail, Moab, UT P.1 UPS & LPS. An Old Mans Perspective On Mountaining
Finally got to check Porcupine Rim off of my Live It List. My 7th time in Moab and it was the best. I'm 58 with c5,6 & 7 fused together in my neck, had total hip replacement 2 years ago, so I wanted to do this right. Speed or time wasn't the goal, getting back to the car and having a good time was. Don Wiseman was my guide & I couldn't have been happier. I was slow, took my time but also made wise choices. Lesson learned, thus the neck and hip, rode bulls and bucking horses when I was young. The exposure doesn't bother me and I seldom notice it. A few section were over my skill level so we just walked them. The most awesome thing is we were the first ones on the trail and only 2 riders caught us. It was like we had the whole trail to ourselves. How often does that happen. I would like to thank my wife that has put up with my adventures for 40 years, my coach Terry Coddington that helped me get in shapeish, Todd Henne how taught me so much when I first started riding, Don Wiseman for being a great guide but most important an awesome human. Peace & Love, Pastor Brad. The fastest former rodeo cowboy/pastor/mountain biker in ARKANSAS. I don't fit in a category so I created my own. Read more

The self-described ‘special ops’ of conservation work, the organization Adventure Scientists recruits and trains volunteers with outdoor skills to collect important data. River runners have looked for microplastics, climbers have sampled glaciers and bicyclists have researched roadkill. Today on the news, we hear from an ‘adventure scientist’ volunteering at Swasey’s Beach on the Green River. Plus, registered voters in Moab City should expect their municipal ballot in the mail this week. And, our radio partners profile wetland habitat restoration work in our region. Read more

Moab, Flying Over, Utah -- 4K Relaxation
This relaxing cinematic drone video was filmed using the DJI Mavic Air 2 over Labor Day weekend of 2021 at various spots in and outside of Moab, Utah. This cinematic journey is through both the large boulder-like formations due west of Moab and the shear rust-red cliffs of the western ridge. Moab was an undeniable gorgeous scenery and it is tough to capture some of the grandeur and scale of the formations filmed. This video has very little editing and color grading to help enjoy the natural beauty as originally intended. Disclaimer: Moab is surrounded by several national parks which are No-Fly Zones (NFZ's) for drones. All drone footage was captured safely outside of any national park boundaries. For more on drone law maps, check out airmap.com This type of footage typically hits the editing room floor, some of it would never be seen. It seemed a worthy idea to create a relaxing video with it instead. I prefer long sweeping shots versus quick sudden movements. I hope you enjoy it too! Thanks.
