Off-roading the Alpine Loop, Colorado. R1S 360 4K

[opnwide]

Hope you enjoy my trip up the Alpine Loop to Engineer Pass, starting in Ouray, CO via Hurricane and California passes to Animas Forks Ghost town. Special thanks to @BrentInCO for the inspiration for the trip, as he may have been one of the first Rivians up to Engineer last year. Insta360 filmed in 4K.

Great footage! I assume the air is too thin up there for inflatables…..

Total filming novice/ignoramus question. Filmed with a drone following you? Yao Ming jogging along with you with a GoPro? Seriously, though, that is WONDERFUL to see. Bravo on the cinematography!! Just awesome!! Thank you for sharing!!

Thank you so much. No drone. It's an Insta360 camera mounted on a selfie-stick. You can see the shadow of the selfie stick attached to the car on the ground from time to time. It becomes invisible in the final image as the images are stitched together. All the creativity is done in post, on software. All you have to do is remember to hit record and have a good image setting on the camera.

Lol, jogging that dude is in serious shape. . I'd guess he used a camera stick and a 360° camera. You can see the shadow of the stick in the sun. Looks like it's suction cupped to the back glass. Basically the same technique motorcycles use.

Thanks for the video @opnwide ! How much juice did the R1S consume start to finish?

Chargeed to 96% in Ouray, and by the time I made it to Lake City 6 hours later, I was at 66%.

Great video! Well done!

Another nice trek is the Last Dollar Road from Highway 62 to Telluride. Beginner to intermediate off-road trail (depending on weather) with fantastic scenery.

Would love to see this route shot with a Time lapse tracking drone! All of this wide-angle grotesque lens distortion is difficult to watch!

Love this route! Been over it at least 20 times.

Yes, yes. I have not done that route but would love to in the fall. So many beautiful photos by John Fielder shot there. Thanks for the reminder.
