Solar Panels on a Westfalia Luggage Rack

February 18, 2013 / Pat Brown / Technology, Van

In May of 2011, I embarked on several projects to improve the functionality of my 1985 VW Vanagon Westfalia camper. After installing a Bostig turbo charger and designing & building an Arduino-based battery monitor, I designed and installed a solar panel system to keep my beer cold all summer long. But of course, just as […]

Gore Canyon GoPro

September 17, 2012 / Pat Brown / Adventure, Kayaking, Stories

It has been a year since my first foray into Gore Canyon which also marked my 100th day of kayaking last season, and on Saturday, 9/15/2012, I had my second opportunity to paddle the majestic canyon. An abysmal snowpack and extreme drought resulted in the worst kayaking season in a decade, so when we began […]

Sleepless Sun

January 28, 2012 / Pat Brown / Adventure, Antarctica, Stories, Technology

While there are many unique aspects of the Antarctic environment, one of the most interesting that it shares with the northern pole is its preponderance of sunshine during the summer months. For the majority of people who have spent their entire lives in the mid-latitudes with its daily cycle of light and dark, it is […]

A Kiwi Christmas

December 27, 2011 / Pat Brown / Adventure, Antarctica, Stories

This holiday season, I feel great sympathy for Santa Claus and the extreme journey he takes around the globe each year as he delivers presents to all the children of the world. My own journey may not have been quite as arduous as Saint Nick’s, but traveling half way around the world for over 24 […]

Bixler GoPro

December 13, 2011 / Pat Brown / Aerial Photography, Technology

For the second Saturday in a row, I had some fun mounting my new GoPro Hero2 onto something unique in order to capture a cool vantage point. This time, I attached the camera to my stock Bixler remote control (RC) airplane and launched it into the wild blue yonder! If it seems like I’ve done […]

GoPro Hero2 camera

December 4, 2011 / Pat Brown / Technology

I finally bought a GoPro helmet camera and have been dying to try it out. Unfortunately, it’s been a little too chilly to kayak and I’m not quite ready to mount it on my RC plane or quadcopter, but I’ve always wondered how River Dog sees the world. So this morning I had a little […]

Time Lapse Photography

November 21, 2011 / Pat Brown / Technology

To continue with my recent theme of technology articles, it seems appropriate to touch on another interesting photographic method– time lapses. You’ve seen them on TV more times than you can count, but I doubt you have ever created one. Depending on the hardware you have, it may be a simple or complex endeavor, but […]

Video Editing Software Comparison

November 4, 2011 / Pat Brown / Technology

As part of my effort to explore the many ways that digital media can be used to share stories, I have invested considerable time and energy creating small videos that I have posted to my YouTube channel. These videos have ranged from my favorite clip of a humpback whale to Gumby flying my RC plane […]

2011 Summer Recap

October 31, 2011 / Pat Brown / Adventure, Kayaking, Stories

We all knew that 2011 would be a year for the record books in the Colorado kayaking world, but none of use knew exactly how it would turn out. After an absolute whirlwind the past several months, I finally have a few moments to recap some of the most memorable trips from this exciting kayaking […]

April Kayaking

May 3, 2011 / Pat Brown / Adventure, Kayaking, Stories

The month of April has passed 2011 by, and I’m glad to say that I made it out kayaking quite often despite the low flows. But don’t be fooled, according to the experts (see map at right) we are in for a banner year of river flows. I’ve even heard that the snowpack for the […]
