    That's beautiful! I'd love to spend a month out here with my truck just exploring. That'd be awesome.

    This is 2017, the GPS units from TopCon collect all the data for you now. Set it to record every 3 seconds and it will draw it for you as well. The caveat is you have to use the terramodel software on the PC.
