The hosts of Photocombobulate, Jeff Carlson and Mason Marsh discuss a recent two-week photo journey, and what it took to make it a success. We start out with where they went, the clothing they selected due to the conditions, and the hardware they took to make the most of the trip. How they stayed powered, how they stayed connected, and why they mapped out the best coffee shops along the way make for some great lessons for your next trip. (Part 1)
