Way to get after it and keep the stoke rollin way into winter. Fun video. By the way, when I shoot with the Go-Pro, I always keep it horizontal, that way you get a fill frame and don't have to deal with the black on the sides. In Final cut, you can crop vertically for vertical perspective if you want to. Those black format lines bug me. Here's a video from The Meadows last fall, the scenes I shot with my i-phone have the black lines and they are kind of a distraction. Just a couple thoughts.

its so warm in the lower canyon, that it feels good to climb in the shade, went to the climbs behind the chapel in the afternoon last week and it was nice. (suprisingly upper sentinal and white fang were still standing, not that were thinking about ice anymore). guys(and gals) have been doing rostrum also, thats how warm it is
