I'm kind of fussy about editing of photos--that is, I don't do a lot since I consider myself a photographer, not a computer artist--but leveling horizons is something I try to pay particular attention to. That is, I fix it post-shoot if I screw it up while shooting (which is really easy with ultra wide-angle lenses). Now the only problem is I don't have a way to fix it post-shoot for videos. And I know all of you have been kind enough to not comment negatively about how often I manage to get one of those GoPros off kilter! ;-)

I use my Nexus 7 with a free GPS navigation app. If I pay TomTom they'll give me some better instructions (for turning), but I so rarely need it, I'm good as is with the free app.

I will say a conditional yes. Conditional because unless you opt for Nexus devices running pure Android, I have no idea what your carrier may have done to allow/disallow certain apps/features. I've never had a problem running them on my various iterations of Nexus phones--currently a Nexus 5. And that's one of the nice things about the Nexus 7 in your Jeep: You're carrying a back-up in your pocket!

When I go out on a long trip I quite literally have thousands of images to go through and sometimes I miss a few good ones. Did another pass through the Colorado Campaign, July 2013 images over the past few days and came up with a few more I like ...
The adventurers on Johnson Mesa, NM ...
My friend Ray (with whom I was riding, so don't look for my Jeep in any of the pictures) shoots the sunrise at Great Sand Dunes National Park, CO.
Keeping a trailer from rolling during the descent from Blanca Peak. This is Jaws 1. It's just as difficult going down as going up ...
A colorful wagon at St Elmo ghost town ...
Looking back down during the drive up to Mary Murphy Mine ...
After Colorado Campaign ended and the group broke up it was necessary for me to ride with Ray back to his home in Washington (from where I'd catch a flight back to Oklahoma). During that leg we paid a visit to Capitol Reef National Park. The image below is along the Burr Trail as we headed into the Waterpocket Fold ...
Some of the above photos were shot by Ray (duh, of course the one with me in it!).

Great pics Mark. I'm still going through all the pics and videos of my trip. 3 videos made and I think 4 to go to complete it.
