Idiot Point

Lake Meade National Recreation Area, Clark County, Nevada view map

***Best view at original size***
A frame grab from the video I was shooting on my ride through Lake Mead National Recreation Area.
I call this "Idiot Point" because I dropped the motorcycle when trying to stop to take a photo of this scene.
For those that have asked, just some very expensive scratches to a few plastic bits on the bike. No real
physical damage to me, but the ego did take a pretty significant hit. Again, the title says it all.

GoPro Hero 4
