Stunning Yosemite Timelapse

David — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 14:23:23 +0000

This could arguably be the best timelapse video I’ve ever seen. Colin Delehanty, who worked at Planet Granite, and Sheldon Neill created this brilliant timelapse. We have shots of daytime, shots at night, shots of climbers, shots of the valley, shots of the sun rising, etc. It gives you a true vision of all that Yosemite offers.

PlanetGear.com – Let It Snow

David — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 11:02:19 +0000

Have you heard of PlanetGear.com yet? It’s a flash sale / private sale operation for specifically outdoor gear — they mainly target women, but men can definitely find some good deals on there too. Right now, they have sales for some shoes, dvds, a vacation package, and more. It’s a nice variety. The site is free to join and you get $10 for free when you invite friends to join (and they make a purchase).

Ashley, from Planet Gear, hit me up yesterday with a link to their first ever video. Check it out — there’s beautiful women playing in the snow, what’s not to love?

Like a kid in a candy store — this guy has so much pow he doesn’t know what to do with it.

This is a really cool video of a single engine plane flying around Oregon. It makes me want to take flying lessons.

Hike 2 Ride is an upcoming film (foreign) about what it takes to hike up a mountain and ride down on a snowboard / skis. It’s about the passion, the challenge … and the danger.

My New Golite Post Canyon Jacket

David — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 23:55:52 +0000

I just received a new Golite Post Canyone Jacket in the mail today! I know it’s still like 95 degrees outside, but the price was right and I had the perfect opportunity to grab one. This is now my third piece of Golite merch (I also have the pack and a performance tee).

I picked up the new jacket on AppOutdoors.com for $59 – it’s normally $100, and is still marked at $100 on Golite’s website. I couldn’t believe what a great price it was. It was my first time ordering at App Outdoors but everything went smooth. Placed my order on 8/21 and got it today on 8/25. I picked the UPS Ground option which is $6.95 – it’s a tad more than I’d like to pay for ground shipping, but it is flat-rate so I could have spent $500 and still only paid $6.95. And it didn’t take that long to get to my house in Florida from their store in Pennsylvania.

Can’t wait for the weather to change so I can wear this jacket on the trail. It’s lightweight, made from recycled polyester and has a nice lining to keep you warm.

The Royal Gorge of the North Fork of The American River hosts some of California’s most beautiful and committing waterfalls. Take a look as a group of paddlers set out to conquer those waterfalls. Great footage from some great kayakers.
