Gear Cart

[Randy Stephens]

The wife and I are coming to Florida next March from Fort Desoto & surrounding area, Cape Coral, Lakeland area, Gatorland, and Blue Cypress Lake for about 2 weeks. We plan to bring a 300VRII, 500VR, 800VR, a couple of shorter lenses, 2 tripods/Gimbals, and accessories. In area where you can use them what gear cart would be best? We're both in our early 60's but in good shape but in some areas we both may need help. I've heard of using Beach Carts make for fishing, Double and single jogging strollers, and the Eckla Beach Rolly. What does most of the Florida regulars use?? Any suggestions??

Thanks,
Randy

Hi Randy for Ft Desoto most of bird activity is really close to the parking with short walks on the beach plus some of the best shots are made from wading in the lagoon were a cart would be useless. I rarely walk more then a half mile at Desoto if that is within your ability I would not get a special beach cart. If you go to circle B in Lakeland any type of stroller will do as you are walking on berms. You will not need carts in any of the other areas you mentioned
