I was one of the Maules in to Alton Bay yesterday. Not a trike though. Mighty busy in there but didn't take any pictures.

Seems I'm not as talented at trimming video as some, its a bit over 15 minutes. The camera in the RV-4 is our new Hero 3+. The one in the Bearhawk is our old "Hero 1" and its image quality looks about like an old VHS in comparison.

Excellent video and thanks for taking the time to post it!

Were you in the Bearhawk and your wife in the RV-4?

I almost did not recognize Jaffrey with all of the snow and no lines at the ice cream counter.

Thank you! ...I wish I could make nice looking stuff like others do. I'm still working on things like camera placement so that I have better raw material.

Yup. We had the RV-4 and then grew to a family of 3. The RV-4 was too much fun to get rid of and Emilie very much prefers flying it to the Bearhawk.
