Skiing Vesper Pk.

My partner Jeff put together this little video of our day on Vesper Pk. in the central Cascades last week. I brought my drone, but didn't get much good video due to flat light. He uses a Go-Pro so shoots POV.

This is really awesome! It may be your best video yet as I like the mix of views from your drone and then the down on the ground clips. Very enjoyable!

This looks professionally done.

Very nicely done Jim. I like the combination of the GoPro and the drone footage.

That's much heavier snow than I was used to skiing when I was an active skier in Utah.

Congrats on the Daily Featured Video (Post) Jim

PS. Ask your friend Jeff to join us here.

Jim D. you make the most impressive videos, I love watching them. The scenery is gorgeous, camera control is excellent and subject matter outstanding. I am truly a fan.

Thanks for the comments guys, Jeff has been working hard on his videos the last couple years (one way to get pro-deals as an influencer). Don't think he'd be interested in this forum though - ski video is pretty much his only thing. I was a little reluctant to share this since he uses commercial music, but decided that is on him (he hasn't gotten in trouble yet).

I really enjoyed that, Jim. Excuse my newbeeness, but you guys have to climb to the top of that mountain carrying gear for just one ride down?

Wow Jim that's pretty awsome.. looks pretty remote no worries about avalanches ?
Amazing Job here..

Jeffrey & Dean: Yes, we do hike all the way up there, and it is pretty remote, esp. in the winter (it's a much easier spring route once the road opens). We were the only ones up in that area, and I doubt it had been done yet this winter . It's nice having a fit young partner to break trail all the way! We had to gain a bit over 4,000 ft. to get to the summit, and it kicked my butt. Avy danger was quite moderate since we hadn't gotten any new snow in over a week, and cold temps kept it frozen in place. We always wear transceivers and carry shovels and probes in any case. Luckily I've never had to use that gear to dig a partner out.
