HEATSTROKE on the hiking trail! Don't ignore the warning signs!
Watch the North American Half-brained Idiot as she attempts to break herself in her quest for.....something.
Seriously though, altitude sickness is not the only thing to worry about while backpacking in the mountains.
Heatstroke can take you just as fiercely.
After the video cuts, I spent the next 1.5 hours trying to hike just three-quarters of a mile back to the Flats, where I could try to setup camp. The reason it took so long is because I literally kept collapsing on the the trail. I could not keep any water or food in me, vomiting several more times during the hike.
When I finally made it back to the Flats area, I dragged myself to the closest edge of Cascade Creek with shade that I could get to, and proceeded to get sick 2 more times, and over the course of several hours lying still, was finally able to keep water down.
Little sips! Don't gulp it because it WILL come back up.
Eventually, I was able to pitch my tent and hunker down. I couldn't stomach eating anything (which I REALLY needed), but managed to drink more than 2 liters of water that evening, and kept it down.
I spent the rest of that day, and the entirety of the next rehydrating and resting before finally being well enough to make the grueling hike back up on Saturday morning.
I only had 1.5 miles to hike back out. It took me 2 hours due to the utter exhaustion my body was experiencing.
SYMPTOMS OF HEATSTROKE:
The hallmark symptom of heat stroke is a core body temperature above 103° F.
Symptoms include:
☆•Headache
☆•Dizziness and light-headedness
☆•Lack of sweating despite the heat
☆•Red, hot, and dry skin
☆•Muscle weakness or cramps
☆•Nausea and vomiting
☆•Rapid heartbeat, which may be either strong or weak
☆•Rapid, shallow breathing
☆•Confusion, disorientation, or staggering •Seizures
•Unconsciousness
Every symptom with a star next to it is what I experienced.
Please take my idiocy as a lesson.
DON'T IGNORE YOUR BODY!
It may be the last thing you do

Enjoy the sights and sounds of Mesa Verde National Park as I hike the Knife Edge Trail. It starts in the Morefield campground and follows part of the old dirt road route in the park. If the trail continued further, it would connect to the Montezuma Valley Overlook. I started at the Prater Ridge trailhead but the actual trail starts at the northwest end of the campground.

Looks amazing
So much yapping before you got to the topic
@Dmxravin Thanks for watching!
Adding Electrolytes to H2O is a must! Safe trips
@DC-xt1ry Absolutely! I had them. I just wasn't being smart.
Just watching you on the hike I became concerned, I know you made it out okay. A good lesson for hiking solo is to be self-aware. You are a smart lady, something like that can happen to any of us, thanks for sharing that, and we are all glad you are okay.
@@haroldgar1 Thank you! I'm glad I'm ok, too. I was plenty self-aware, but unfortunately, I simply ignored the signs. Hopefully, others will learn from my idiocy.
我最近也想購買這台相機，很開心發現了這部優雅又有氣氛的影片🩵
@@Fei_Bi 謝謝你美麗的讚美 🙏🏻
Is there a way to correct washed out sky and buildings at 2:47?
@inquisitvem6723 Not really. There's no camera settings to adjust (ISO/shutter speed), and as far as I can tell, the X1 cranks up the ISO in order to expose for the darker areas, which, in turn, blows out the highlights.
Very nice. I bought a dji recently for $250. How much was this?
great video! beautiful shots and so personal! thanks for sharing!
@@mikeconrad3115 Thank you so much! Colorado makes it pretty easy to capture beautiful shots.
I don’t even recognize Austin. Downtown look totally different than when I lived there 20 years ago. It’s was a small, cheap laid back place to live.
Yeah, still a beautiful city, but cheap and laid-back it no longer is. Still small, and feels smaller every day with how many people are crowding into it. You oughtta see SoCo, South First, and S. Lamar now. Nothing like you'd remember.
Such a beautiful solo journey my friend, shots are so beautiful and diverse! Absolutely gorgeous 👏👏
That is such a wonderful compliment, especially from someone who makes such beautiful videos as yours! Thank you! Your kind words help to encourage people like me to keep trying. Thank you. 🙏🏻
I have watched over a hundred videos of Carlsbad Caverns, and I must say your video is one of the best of them. Beautiful photography, pleasant music and informative. I will point out that the smell at the entrance is bird poop/urine, not bat guano. The bats sleep and do their "business" over a quarter of a mile back in the bat cave section. I'm glad you enjoyed the Caverns. I too was there in Nov 1986, and 2 previous times, and in 2011 ( I wish it was more like 40 times ). What you need to try is to get a reservation for a ranger led tour of Slaughter Canyon Cave, thru the Carlsbad Caverns web site. About 15 miles south of White's City. You hike a 1/4 mile back with a 400 ft gain in altitude to the entance of the cave. Bring hiking boots and a Flashlight and water, and energy snack for when you are on the hiking trail not in the cave. NO lights, no handrails, no paved trails. Just wild caving (although there is no crawling or climbing). You'll see formations which are more beautiful than those in Carlsbad Caverns, especially The Christmas Tree. One formation, The Monarch, is around 90 ft tall. Anyway, if you find the time to take this tour I'm sure you'll love it. Take care.
What a wonderful compliment! That means quite a lot to me, thank you so very much! Thanks for pointing out my error on the bird poop. That makes way more sense, especially with so many birds in there. It definitely smelled similar to what I recall smelling as a child when the bats flew out. Thanks for the tip on Slaughter Canyon Cave! I will certainly add that to my list!
Were you nervous about it when it followed you through the trees? It was really impressive that it didnt hit any since my understanding is that it didn't have front obstacle avoidance? Impressive!
Not at all! You are correct, it does not have any obstacle avoidance to the front, rear, or top. It KINDA does on the bottom. The way it follows, it's almost as if it records the path you make as you move and then follows that same path as best it can. I also tend to guide it with my body when I'm in tighter areas, drawing it past trees before I change direction. I've found that the faster you make it chase you, the greater the chance of actually running it into something. Lol, mine has hit fences, walls, and tree branches. So far, so good!
@@LifeOfIvyQuinn thanks for the info, I appreciate it! I may get one!
@@frankbui1510 You're so very welcome! If you haven't already seen it, I have another cinematic video that I shot at sunrise. I think it does a better job of showing what this is capable of... czcams.com/video/9dECR2FZ0eQ/video.htmlsi=hWtIHeTsaXmHgUsO
@@LifeOfIvyQuinn I have seen it and love the shots it's capable of! I have a mavic pro and sometimes the shots I want are quick but it takes too long to setup(unfolding, remote, launching phone app, waiting for gps) just for a quick 5 second shot so I think this would be perfect.
@@frankbui1510 Right on, thanks for watching! THAT is exactly what makes this little drone so good. It takes less than 30 second to power it up and get it in the air. I definitely want a GPS drone for bigger/higher/faster shots, but this one does great for the moment.
Really nice footage. Did you hand grade it, or did you use a specific LUT? I just received mine the other day and just getting to know it. Looking forward to capturing some good shots of our upcoming travels through Bavaria, Northern Italy, Switzerland and Alsace. Did you find it difficult to control manually?
Thank you! This video took 2-3 hours to shoot, and with that comes changing light as the sun rises. I first had to adjust each clip to get white balance/exposure/color/etc. to match as close as possible. I then applied a filter to the entire video, after which I went back into the individual clips for final tweaking of the image. As for manual control, I'm quite used to it. During manual flight, the drone's speed is significantly reduced, from a 15mph top speed (when flying itself) down to about 1.5mph during manually controlled flight, so chances of you losing control of it/running into something or someone are greatly reduced. It's actually pretty relaxed.
Wow, impressive. I want one of these drones.
It's a neat little piece of tech!
Well done! Exactly the kind of video I was looking for to show off the Hover X1 drone.
Thank you!
great video! love the different angles and shots. that little drone is cool!
Thank you! It really is a neat little piece of equipment.
Superb, really well done 😊👏🏼
Thank you very much!
Love these captures! And your editing. And thar color grading... I cannot believe you are just doing it manually on your phone 😮❤🎉
Thank you!
Классно 😊
Спасибо 🙏🏻
Very nice
Thank you!
how much does the drone cost?
$479 USD on amazon right now
@@LifeOfIvyQuinn Compared to DJI, which one is better?
@ikhsaneddiesaputra5668 That's a difficult question to answer. On one hand, the HOVERAir is EXTREMELY convenient to use. It takes only seconds to turn it on and get flying, and it does what it does very well. On the other hand, a DJI 2SE is only $299 on amazon, it flies farther, it flies faster, it flies higher, and it has better image quality, but it's not as compact or as convenient to fly as the HOVERAir. They both have their pros and cons. It really comes down to what is best for your situation. For me, having both would be the way to go, and is my plan.
Amazing video. 👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾👋🏾 Really would like to know how you got some angles with out being in the shot?
For some of the shots, I was flying it manually.
thanks for sharing lots of cool angles, especially love when you did birds eye while walking. when you shot some on manual mode did you just use the phone app?
Thank YOU for watching! Yep, just the phone for control. I have debated buying one of the 8Bitdo controllers, but now that I'm used to the phone app, I simply haven't seen the need to spend the money.
Well done. I loved watching it especially in mind this was done with the Hoverair.
Thank you! Yeah, it does pretty well. Especially in the right light.
Very good, I've been waiting for someone to shoot video's of different angles using the modes. Keep them coming I love it. 👏👏
Thank you so much! I'm planning on it!
I didnt know that thing could back up in front of you while filming...awesome! I intend to use it in the woods though, might not work very well hehe
Yup! It's called "Dolly Track", and as long as it's not too tight where you'll be, you really shouldn't have any trouble.
@@LifeOfIvyQuinn Thanks!
Really nicely done, thank you because this gave me some ideas. The quality of the video is excellent, did you upscale it by any chance?
Thank you so very much! No upscaling. Every shot was recorded in 2.7K @ 30fps and edited on my phone with CapCut.
@LifeOfIvyQuinn But it shows as a 4K video. So you must have upscaled it, no? Nice shots, if a little heavy on the orange and teal tint.😊
@markr041 Thank you! I don't know what to tell ya. On my end, the highest resolution shows as 2160p. It was recorded in and exported as 2.7k, and that's the file uploaded here. Why it would show as 4k is beyond me 🤷🏻♀️
@@LifeOfIvyQuinn lol, ok, appreciate you taking valuable time to respond. 👌🏾
@Coatsey007 lol, I don't know if I would describe my time as "valuable", but you're welcome.
Great footage!
Thank you! I really can't take credit, though. The skyline and Town Lake make it easy to get nice shots.
@@LifeOfIvyQuinn I agree as I shoot in the same location 😀 but your time of the day/lighting and edits are awesome!
@@showingaustin Aww, well, thank you!
Awesome color grading, I would like to know some of your techniques?
Thank you! I'm really just learning color grading, and I edit all my videos on my phone. This video took a couple hours to shoot, and the lighting was different for just about every scene, so I first had to go in and manually adjust (color/brightness/temp/etc.) each clip individually. Once I got them all looking relatively the same, I applied a filter to the entire video and adjusted that. I then went back and tweaked the individual clips to get everything to match as close as possible. Lol, I don't know if it's the "right" way to do it, but that's how I do'd it.
Thank you for the reply, color grading can be quite the challenge when you have multiple clips and want them all to match. I’ve had this drone for a few days and I really like it.
This showed up on my feed after I just purchased one! Awesome video, and very well edited!
Wonderful. This is one of the most cinematic sequences I have seen using HoverAir X1. Gives me ideas to shoot it that way.
I sincerely appreciate that. Thank you so much! I bet you'll create beautiful videos!
so are you back to posting your travels
Nice color Grading
@@LifeOfIvyQuinnFrom the evidence of this video, you are pretty darn good at this!
@revomartin Thank you so much! You're very kind. I really am trying.
Awesome
Thank you! I'm tryin'!
Is this far from the falls?
I'm not sure where the falls are, but the springs are accessed via the Sheep Creek trailhead off of FR 622.
Looks like a blast! I have a Honda navi and intend on taking it on adventures as well.
I love this scoot. It has taken me down lots of trails. The Navi seems like a great little runabout for dirt roads and such!
Would like to see your van build - do you put the scooter inside? Any video in the works?
Funny and kinda amazing looks like some great riding
An adventure to last a lifetime. Did you catch a foul smell coming from the depths of the mine?
