  1. This is a goPro Hero. I used imovie but I'm not really experienced at it. This was the first time I put any footage together. I think you can scroll through the quality settings on the camera somehow. I have noticed theses cameras lose quality in low light conditions.
  2. The CAC rating was considerable for that day. I always check the bulletins in the AM and keep a close eye on things during the week from calgary as well. I'm glad you're sharing this video, I had initially intended on just sharing it with my extended group of friends but thought anyone who is using the bc backcountry (pucells in particular)should be able to witness the severity of the instability. The crown on this slab was 1-1.5m thick and obviously ran full path. The GoPro was mounted on my extended shovel shaft on my pack this is a new angle I was trying and like the perspective, I just wish in this case it was mounted on my left shoulder. No 420, I haven't been to fortress since it closed.
  3. I do alot of backcountry snowboarding/snowmobiling. I received a GoPro camera last year and started filming most of my runs since. This day was a really close call, fortunately I had an easy escape route(ridge shoulder) and the other members of my group were in safe zones waiting/watching. The snowpack is really dodgy this year as this slide went down to the dec 11 rain/sun crust. Our group had been skiing this ridge all day without incident and further down the same ridge the previous day. This is the biggest person triggered avalanche our extended group has seen so we will be using extra caution as should everyone else who enjoys the backcountry. video Dave
  4. Awesome! This should be made VERY public as a type of warning to potential poachers.
  5. If I had forgot my blaze orange toque at home while en-route to a hunting trip, I would turn around and get it or buy a new one on the way. It's not the law in Alberta but it's certainly a good idea. I wear my seatbelt while in a moving vehicle, not because its the law, not because I don't trust my driving....but because I don't trust other drivers. Some of them are texting, some of them are applying make-up, some of them are drunk!!..and guess what....some hunters are drunk too!! Anything that hedges the odds in favour of me(or my friends) NOT getting shot by a big game rifle makes me happy. The actual odds are irrelevant to me, could be 30% safer could be .1% safer... I choose safety.
  6. According to a 2009 study, there are 50 streams in alberta containing pure strain westslopes vs the original 274.
  7. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Falline-Cons...158964887494144 Darren is a friend of mine, very reliable. You can see his work in the photos via fbook.
  8. Flor de Caná. Nicaraguan, not caribean but top shelf absolutly.
  9. That's an awful nice brookie....but dont they call 'em spec's out east??.....(uh oh, walleye vs pickerel debate?) There are decent Brookies 'round here if you can find 'em. This one's from an Alberta crick.....hungry little buggers.
