It’s been a busy spring and summer of kayak instruction; both whitewater and sea kayaking. And the busiest part of the season is still to come. I haven’t posted lately so I’ll play catch-up now about some of the events to date… SCOUT LEADER KAYAK TRAINING, June 5-8 I’ll start […]

Northern Lights Time Lapse Video
Time lapse of the northern lights over the bay April 24 as the Moon and Venus descended. The second part was recorded after midnight over a period of several hours. Shot with a GoPro 10 on Night Lapse setting.
Ducks and More Ducks
We witnessed another amazing duck migration this spring. I shot this with a drone just offshore from our home on Green Bay two weeks ago. Most of them appeared to be either Greater Scaups or Lesser Scaups. (If you can tell the difference from this angle, please let me know.) […]
Red River Dunks
My first paddle day in the Midwest this season after kayaking in the Southeast US earlier this year. Apparently I’m still shaking off some winter rust. And yes that should be “CFS” for Cubic Feet per Second, not “CFI”. I shot the drone footage right before we launched our kayaks.
Flying Across Ice
Chasing my neighbor across the ice of Green Bay with a DJI Avata drone for the FPV footage and a DJI Mini 2 drone for the cinematic aerials.

A few cold-weather drone videos show the beauty of winter in Wisconsin. Shot with a DJI Avata and a DJI Mini 2 and edited with Cyberlink Power Director 360. Still learning and having fun. Ski Trails near Lakewood Bay of Green Bay Wequiock Falls near Green Bay

Chilly Peshtigo River Kayaking
It was a chilly day but the river level was as high it’s been since last spring so we had to go.
Clean-up and Fun on the Wolf River
On a chilly 35°F day we spent about 4-1/2 hours on the river picking up bottles, cans, flipflops, and other trash on Section 4 of the Wolf in the Menominee Reservation in Northern Wisconsin. Here’s footage of the named rapids. In hindsight I should have shot more of the trash-gathering […]
