I am also looking to sell my Contour and buy a Go Pro before Christmas. Lesson from last winter is that the Contour just doesn't have a wide enough FOV for skiing. This is especially clear to me now that I am looking at all of this footage for the first time in a while. Some of it is quite disappointing, to be honest. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't watch!
OK. Enough rambling. Here is a combo video with shots from the trip Scott and I took to Mt. Cardigan in late February, 2012. Awesome snow fields. Crappy snow on the day we went though. I'm also including some footage from a March trip to Tuckerman for an Avalanche course with Osgood, Chad Greenlaw and Josh Lent. I won't make a practice of filming snow pits, but thought it'd be worth taking a bit of footage during the class. No soundtrack to this one. Boring, I know.
More to come. Enjoy!
