Years ago there were fish in here. It was one of my dad's hidden local spots to go flyfishing. I tried to hike in with my rod this week and unfortunately discovered that years of California drought have killed off the fish. In addition, fires destroyed the road that was used to stock the river back in the day. Nevertheless it was a nice day and I'm glad I brought my mavic air along to capture some of the views. Enjoy.

nice simple and smooth panning shots. looked great in 480p - cool frog shot.

That is very cool!

Thank you! Caught the frog with my phone and thought it was worth sneaking in there

Fantastic video, thank you very much!

very beautiful video..also above the clouds..wonderful..I wish to do something similar..

really good one

Great job.  Suggestion - next time you get a great shot like that frog - drone or not - put it in twice.  Make the 2nd one in slow motion.  I'd have loved to see that one for a bit longer.  The waterfalls were lovely too.

Nice video

The fog shot at the beginning is so beautiful, thanks for sharing.

Great video, well done

Thanks, StanfordWebbie! Just as a personal rule I never use the same shot in a video more than once. but i'm definitely going to spend more time shooting on the ground in the future and hopefully ill be able to capture more moments like this one with the frog. now to order a sony a7iii. just need to find 2 grand i forgot about in a pocket or something ;)

Good rule.  Mine is to keep all my videos under 3 minutes.  I'll occasionally see someone put a long video  out there with the same scene shot over and over at slightly different angles.  Another reason to like your rule.  But, if you ever get another shot like that frog, remember that even great rules should be broken under special conditions.  

Nice video.
I am glad you took the Mavic Air, otherwise we would of not of seen the beauty of the clouds or the Canyon water falls.
