If you use the app TrailForks you can see all the trails in the area for mtbing

At least the rest of us don’t have to deal with your bullshit attitude while we’re having fun on our crappy “butte”.

Great question. Deschutes SAR is volunteer only.

Thank you, do you know if there are any academy’s in Oregon that pay you for search and rescue work to start a career out of it ?

I don’t know the answer to that but all official SAR operations are run out of the county Sheriff offices, so that would be the place to check for big counties in Oregon.

Thank you very much!

Nice! Welcome to Bend Dwayne.

Thanks Z2N! We are going to put out a bunch of new content in the next few months, so stay tuned!

@@thebend8788 10-4 on that!

Awesome to meet you guys and excited to see what happens on the channel!

@@thebend8788 Thanks for appearing in our video! Your kids are great!

Spot on Mark. There are so many things we could have done better on our first pallet bar build. Impatience hasn’t burned us too bad yet so we often go for the ready, fire, aim approach. You will see that in many of our videos in fact. Thanks for watching!

Critical to call out, Bryce. Avalanche safety is nothing to be lax about. Of course the magic of film will never capture the hours all of us who go into the backcountry spend researching snow conditions, avvy reports, digging snow pits and assessing layers. Everyone who goes out should take an avalanche safety course to learn more about the art and science of the trade. Thanks for the callout.

@@thebend8788 One of the main points of avalanche courses is that you cannot 100% predict what is happening in the snowpack from observations such as reports, pits etc. The snowpack is outside of your control. The one thing you can control is terrain, and you still choose to commit to the most exposed ascent on the mountain, leaving both of you vulnerable for the entire ascent. My main reason for calling you out is that you are promoting yourself as a knowledgeable backcountry traveller who makes safety oriented decisions, and the decision showcased here using the absolute worst terrain management practices is now shown as a positive one because you made it back home to make the video, when in reality you just got lucky with no incidents. Beyond the egregious disregard for risk management, cutting a skin track right through the middle of prime skiing terrain is also a huge breach of etiquette.

Indeed Andy! Look out for more trail highlights in Bend and let us know if you have any requests.

Indeed Jacob! The mapping gave us fits on this video. Still looking for a go-to and easy way to build map journeys. But watch part 2 of the van video for (hopefully) and improvement.

Right on Adam! We didn’t know what we were missing until now.

Shout out to NZ! Welcome to The Bend!

That’s it TBLG. DJI Air 2s with slightly chipped propellers from our 12 hour Drone Challenge video. Performed like a champ.

@@thebend8788 Cool

Thanks Mitsu. More to come!

Thanks Mike! Hopefully you’ll join us for the ride by subscribing. We have a number of stories coming out this fall - the Alvord Desert, best road ride in Bend, and more!

Great question! I’m going to go with standard Dark Walnut.

Awesome! The trails are a bit dusty this time of year so watch out for disappearing berms. Go get it and thanks for watching.

Thanks Adam!

Aloha from Bend, Fernando. Lots of Hawaiians in Bend. Maybe we should do a show on that.

That’s what I’m saying!! Bark was unsupervised for that part of the build. Our new motto: Don’t cut your fingers off.

@@thebend8788 fair enough, great video btw! ❤

What a great comment Fernando! As Bend grows it will be incredibly important to for those in the Bend community, as well as those visiting, to treat each other with patience and respect. I remember the first summer I arrived in Bend and saw a woman on the sidewalk gently reminding a visitor in a car that we don't really honk here in Bend. Community culture is a luxury, and a choice each of us will have to make every day to keep Bend cool.

Very good call on out the land, sea, space aspect of drones. Maybe a follow up drone video is in order.

Welcome to Bend, Relentless, and thanks for being so considerate. The good news is you are flying a micro drone (<250g) which is safer around people. The bad news is Bend is crowded this time of year! We try to fly early mornings or late evenings, or off-season times of the year, to avoid people. There are also a number of large parks that allow you to get to the recommended 122 meter altitude without obstruction (Harmon Park, the Pavilion lawn, Discovery Park). Enjoy your visit and thank you for being cool to those around you.

This is a really good point and worth investigating before working with a pallet. Arsenic use should have been stopped in the early 2000s so newer pallets are better, but the only sure way to know is to check the stamp (see link below). HT (heat treated) is ok, MB (Methyl Bromide) is not. Either way, we agree - use these pallet bars outside! Thanks for calling this out M Modtomic. earth911.com/health/how-to-safely-use-pallet-wood/

Thanks Jared. Glad to have you as part of The Bend crew. Let us know if you want to see any other trails highlighted!

Added some 1/4 inch dark particle board on backside. Easy to cut and very inexpensive.

Thanks Jude. Keep spreading the word.

Outstanding new hack! I didn't think I'd get the bead to set with a hand pump and I'm guessing I got lucky. Taking the valve core out makes way more sense for future chances of success. Thanks Adam!

What an awesome comment - thank you! It makes all the hours in the editing booth worthwhile. Let us know if you are local or out of town, and if there’s anything in particular you’d like to see about Bend or Central Oregon. And if you haven’t already, please subscribe! It’s the fuel that keeps us going. Cheers!

@@thebend8788 Not yet a local, but eventually. I'd love to see some content about must-do hikes and snowshoeing destinations. Anything about the food scene is always interesting. And coverage of new developments such as the new retail coming in north of town.

Great ideas @moreliberty1 Bark has been dying to do a show on best food trucks and we are always looking for new hikes. We also have a drone video in the works that will offer new perspectives on Bend so stay tuned!

Thanks Susanne! Keep an eye on the channel, we are working on a very cool aerial video episode.

We have a winner! What gave it away for you?

I live across the street ;-) Great vids, keep em coming. I saw curling was on the docket, killer! Any way you can do hockey(Great league at Inn at 7th) or maybe some pond hockey? Or The Gambler 500 is coming in summer for more car stuff. Cheers

@@NeonLeon9 Hope we didn't wake you up with that 7am film set. There were drones and revving Audi's, but I think we were drowned out by the snow removal trucks. Hockey and Gambler 500?!? Now those are some great ideas. Curling is on the way for sure. Keep an eye out.

Thanks Colin. Enjoy the surfing! You had snow for 18 years of your life.

I have to admit Matt, I was blown away by how well this worked. I heard about the trick a few years ago but then thought "do I really need to run that badly in the winter?" The answer was no until we did this video, but I'm glad we tried it! James

Thanks for the support. Looks like you are doing some great work on your channel as well!
