I must be one of the few people at Altitude-sports.com who's eager for spring. I recently went winter camping. I had a great time, but I can't say I'd go every week. I prefer doing things where I feel warmer and drier. Whilst waiting to satisfy my outdoor desires, I watch videos that explore majestic locales that I add to my travel bucket list. Speaking of which, there's a video I want to suggest you watch. It's a documentary about a rock climbing-photographer who makes documentaries about rock climbing for National Geographic. Ok, that's practically a mise en abyme, but eyond that it you'll appreciate the damn fine videography, which was to be expected coming from an organization as prestigious as NG. By the way, the action takes place in Yosemite, in California (already added to previously mentioned bucket list). Enjoy!

Yes, there's a bit of verbiage, but I watched it a few times and I always end up absorbed by the images and the music.

I've got just what the doctor ordered: 2 minutes of daydreaming. Enjoy!

As the author, Chris Giordano, mentions, this is a short clip of the beautiful Sequoia National Park throughout the Sierra Nevada mountains in California. The park is home to a wonderful assortment of plant life, including General Sherman; the largest tree by volume in the world, and animal life, such as black bears, mule deer, mountain lions, trout, hawks, and more.

What I found crazy was that his endeavour was really difficult, but he made it look so easy. It's like he was going for a simple morning run. Wow!

The old record belongs to Tim Twietmeyer.

We'll see if Kilian, his southern France accent and a VO2 Max of 92 can find it in his inner self to push his limits. Join us on October the 23rd to find out the rest!

Thank you to Journal du Trek for the link to the video.
