High Sierra Topix

I've been out playing a lot recently (and heading out again this weekend) and haven't had time to post photos or trip reports yet. But I did upload some videos to youtube - thought some of you might enjoy them. (hm, I hope that youtube tag works) (edit: not working, will fix)

First up, did any of you experience that weird weather two weeks ago saturday? With the wind and *really* quickly moving clouds? I caught a short video of them at sunset from Granite Park

Thanks, calipidder. Really enjoyed the sunsets.

Very cool Cadi, only thing I missed was that you did not include the Kaweah Ridge
in your video from the Columbine area.

Calipidder, nice videos! We ran into you guys in Bear Lakes Basin, on the fifth day of our 14 day trip. We were the guys frolicking at Vee Lake (well, Van and Andrew were enjoyng the cold water while I was taking pictures).









Glad to see you made it up the chute and summited Seven Gables!

Like how the first video looks right up the barrel of Granite-Bear Pass.

For me the Mineral King trip presentation was done as well as any I've seen. It suits my own personal preferences. Thanks for this.
