Mapping Patagonia | Best Job Ever
Marty and I set out on an expedition to make the first print and interactive maps of Patagonia National Park. This was a dream project. In Patagonia, we wanted to explore as much of the park as we could. So that meant bushwacking off trails. That meant, you know, scrambling through deep brush or crossing tons of streams that are ice cold. And you know, that was part of the exploration and part of the adventure of the [Music] project.
When we were climbing up some of these remote peaks, we'd spend hours going across scree fields just to get to the summit or get to this beautiful overlook and see what it's like up there. We would create maybe a 360 panorama. The real goal was to give people an underground perspective of what it's like to stand in the park itself. [Music]
I mean, look at that! It doesn't get much better than that. Every day is different. What I love most about Patagonia is no two days are the same. The weather is constantly changing, the light is constantly changing. We never know what the sunrise, sunset, or anything in between will hold.
And then we get to come back and produce a beautiful map that represents this place and, you know, share that with other people. That's really why I do it. It's beautiful. It's actually ice fishing reel.
