I spent the night out in the field in the hot tent so I could get an early start up the mountain to film the predicted snowstorm.
I was not disappointed. The blizzard hit just as I was making my way to the fields at Villanova. I was able to fly the drone during breaks in the snowstorm. This was my first major hike since by battle with long Covid began two months ago. I felt pretty good during the hike and the whole snowy adventure got my energy up for quite a while but unfortunately I crashed for two days afterwards.
Covid Sucks!
The opening track for the camera gear prep part of the video is cool because of the nature of the editing I got use a genre that is not normally associated with nature and hiking videos, namely ‘trap beat’.

The music for the rest of the video is more suited for nature and drone footage with it’s ambient pads and lone piano melody. The great thing about this track is the composer provided an alternate version of the mix the excluded the piano melody which I used at the end of the video to give it an even more ambient effect.

We have been pounded by rain for 20 days straight recently here in the mountains of Catalonia. We’ve been living inside a cloud that is constantly dumping water on us.
I went out on a heavy rain day to do some filming just to see if I could and because I was curious what it was like out there with everything drowning in water.
I like how the music from Denis Kotenko helps give the video the dreamlike quality I was going for.

Here is my latest hiking adventure starting deep in the forest valley near the stream known as La Riera de Truitas (trout stream) and making my way up the mountain known as Turo d’Arenys (Sand Hill).
I’m using my insta360 camera and a drone shot at the end to give a wide angle of the top of the mountain.
I like the comical nature of the music I chose for the warped 360 degree shots…

Monalia has her own Polaris Ranger 1000 4WD jeep that she tools around the forests in the mountains of Northern Spain where we have been living for just over a year now.
We use the overgrown back roads created by loggers to find hidden gems like waterfalls and secret picnic spots.
It is also useful for going into town on errands and for emergency escape routes should there be a wildfire near where we live.
I did a quick video edit of some of the footage we took while cruising around the other day.
