Getting outside, challenging myself and trying new things is how I stay sane! I spent years making videos for outdoor brands. Now I have a corporate 9 to 5, but I need to make room for adventures.
Sometimes that's a sunrise hike. Sometimes it's burpees after work, or even a walk across the Grand Canyon or exploring the White Mountains. It might also be testing instant coffee or outdoor products (new and old), so you don't have to. This channel is for anyone figuring out how to stay active, get outside, and enjoy it - even with real life, old gear, or limited time. What you'll find here: → Gear and coffee reviews (honest, not sponsored) → Day hikes and backpacking trips → Backcountry skiing and telemark → The occasional big adventure (Grand Canyon rim to rim, White Mountains huts) I'm not here to show you what's extreme. I'm here to figure it out with you. Subscribe if that sounds like your kind of thing. Hollyland Lark M2S Wireless Microphone Unboxing - Full Kit Accessories & Features for iPhone/GoPro2/14/2026
The Hollyland Lark M2S is a new wireless microphone kit for creators! Watch this full unboxing to see every accessory, adapter, and feature included in the box for your camera, iPhone, or GoPro setup.
I sprung for the ultimate combo so I'd have options for my camera, my GoPro, and my iPhone (which still has a lightning port). Here's everything that came in the box, and one extra adapter I bought separately. What's in the kit: • Charging case • Two clip-on wireless microphones • Camera receiver with mini pin, volume adjustment, USB-C, and hot shoe mount • USB-C adapter for GoPro or modern phones • Lightning adapter for older iPhones • Two windscreens (softies) for wind noise reduction • Camera cable • Charging cable • Full instruction sheet Note: I also bought a separate lightning extender so the mic works with my iPhone even when it's in a case. That's not included in the kit. I got my 20-year-old Gregory Reactor pack repaired for free. Maybe you too. After the zipper ripped, I almost threw it away. Then my son asked why I didn't just get it fixed. Why didn't I think of that?
I sent it to Gregory's authorized repair center, crossed my fingers, and waited. While I waited, I dug into the repair policies of other outdoor brands - some are great, some are vague, and some need proof of purchase, which would definitely be lost after 20 years. In this video I'll show you what happened, what I learned, and which companies are actually worth buying from. You don't need new gear to get outside. If it's safe and it works, use it. Repair it if you can. And when you do buy, factor in the company behind the product - not just the price tag. |
What is this?I switched from outdoor work to a corporate job, and sometimes the desk life feels soul-crushing. This channel is me figuring out how to keep life interesting. Archives
