Amphib Camping

[Eric Fogelin]

Yet another motivational video up on YouTube. Went camping for a few days;
tried new things, learned a bunch. We were unable to beach the plane while
camping due to high water (no beaches). Fortunately, I had thrown a couple
hundred feet of line in with the anchor. Had no idea where we would end up
camping, but found a protected nook to tuck the airplane in.

We kept the plane floating the whole time with an anchor out front, stern
line running off one of the floats and two perpendicular lines running from
the forward vertical float struts to trees on the shore.

Worked out great.

Primitive camp site, no one else camping within miles of us. Bear country
but none stopped by during the night. Huge old growth trees, fun flying on
and off the water while we explored the lake. And a huge volcano towering
over us wherever we went.

Enjoy.
