Flying through clouds - Col du Forclaz

[Niiik]

Flying through mist and clouds on the French Swiss border.
When the clouds rolled in, lost visual contact with the Mavic, having to rely on the map to navigate. A little scary with trees and cliffs around!

I had a similar experience today but the light was nowhere near as beautiful as yours. I elevated to take a panorama before rain came in, and wondered why the view seemed grayer and less saturated than usual. Descended 10 meters, and the color came back. Oh, I was that close to clouds, eh?

Did the same in Canada, but one propeller got iced and Mavic crashed from 400mt... incredibly no damages.
Not able to upload here the video but you can watch it on this link:

That's incredible! Did you get any more footage above the clouds?

Not much, I just wanted to see the height of clouds because we were there for Heliski

I flew in snow for the first time yesterday - very nerve wracking!
