    Enjoying following along on the adventure. Bummer about Steve's iPad and GoPro. Chris, another alternative on the GoPro is to use the Media Mod, so far I've found the weather sealing pretty good and my audio has been OK even during rain... but I'm heading out to do IdahoBDR in 2 weeks, so that will probably be a tougher test. I'll let you know how it goes.
