182 on Knik Picnic Strip and sightseeing

Just trying out the new gopro and enjoying the scenery. Getting a feel for what the 182 on 8.50x6's can do. Picnic is probably about as rough as I want to try at the moment! Lots of pendular rolling induced by the unevenness of the rocks.

Great video. I lived in Alaska from 2000-2004 and kept a Super Cub at Merrill from 2001 until I left. I spent a lot of time in the Knik. Thanks for the memories!
