Very cool!  I was holding my breath watching the night landing.  Did you guys have a backup plan in case you don't make land on time?  Also, the 360 of Parsons Landing was super cool, especially the two AIs on the beach. 

Too fucking awesome! Two thumbs up and super like!

It's time consuming to document the whole trip,it's all worth the effort I guess since most people like it. :smt006

As far as safety goes, I didn't feel I am in any danger even though it's getting a bit late. The only concern is mechanical problem of the mirage drive, hence I bought an extra mirage drive.
Hint....leave at 6am if anyone plan to do this type of trip.

Awesome video!  Thanks for putting it together. 

So now that you've had time to soak it all in and reflect on it... other than starting out at 6am, what would you do differently next time?

- Stay 2 days longer. It was so short when you do what you love in a remote place like this.
Nothing else I would want to change.

Is it just me or the way back seemed much shorter (time wise) than the departure leg?

- It took 9.5 hours to get there, because we had wind directly blew from our destination.
- 8 hours to get back home. Average 3.2mph, pedal Alllllllllllllllll the way.
