I'm greatly enjoying your ski decent videos. some of which I've skied also. I'm not able to do these adventures anymore but can relive them through your videos. One question I have for you is why don't you split your skis up when you put them on your pack? Bindings in the side strap of your pack area to keep the tails high enough so your calves don't bump them. Tips fastened together so the skis form a triangle. My ski buddies and I used this method for decades and found it to work well for us. (I'm not assuming you don't have your reasons) Thanks again gents for sharing your adventures on video!

What do you use for the mapping function. I find the way your videos are laid out tells an excellent story and the Topo map visual really brings the distance and elevation to a visual level. I would appreciate any input so I can incorporate this into my editing process. You guys rock!

Tips for anyone going into wilderness skiing. Get to know people who had done many years of it and survived. Find out how they survive. I went to take an avalanche course. The instructor died, in an avalanche, the day before the course. Remember, the mountain never looses.

That was one hell of a day! I'm always amazed at the footage you manage to get while self-filming in these circumstances. When I start getting real tired, taking time to set up nice shots is the first thing I give up! Like the new music tracks as well.

So I've been considering moving to Utah ( I'm not from California so it's ok)
Should I? I like snow, and mountains, but heat and me are not exactly friends. so Alaska, Northern WA or Idaho or Montana sounds interesting too.

You can't cheat the mountain. The mountain has its ways. I tried to wear down the Rocky Mountains but after 50 years, I discovered that I didn't wear them down a bit. Be careful up there, Thanks for the awesome vids.

Great job! I did Cascade back in 80 and got trapped up there in a Fall snow storm. Dug a hole and covered myself in leaves to keep from freezing and hiked out the next day. Worse experience ever!

You guys are so lucky to be able to share in adventures like these. I have hiked Cascade Mountain in summer, and it is a bit scary. Didn't have anyone to go with.

You guys have inspired me to take on St. Helens later this spring. Nothing crazy, but I'm looking forward to it. Just gotta convince a few buddies to come along

What was up with that tubing? Super weird. Also that little cliff jump, could you see that from when you started that traverse or did it just work out? Rad day.

If this is mediocre and amateurish, then I will have to up my game considerably to become an amateur. I feel more like a toddler after watching this!

This looked amazingly rough but you make it look relatively easy. It was beautiful. I have never seen cornices like that.

There is nothing fun about booting. Now you know how it was being a snowboarder before split boards were a thing.

Your videos are the best! I'd be super curious to see a list of the gear you bring on a ski tour like this. Cheers
