  • My buddy Brent Henderson and I decided to tackle 'Smutwood Peak' this summer so that we could witness the stunning view of Mt Birdwood.
    There had been LOTS of grizzly bear activity in the area but we were lucky and didn't bump into any during our 40km hike. That's a good thing because after just two hours of sleep I was definitely not going to outrun even the mosquitoes.
    I was also having hilarious problems getting the Gopro voice commands to work as it could not comprehend my Yorkshire accent.
    Hope you enjoy and please leave a comment and maybe hit the subscribe button :)

    I am in awe of your hiking abilities! I get what you are saying about the polarizing blob but could you perhaps do a video of dealing with it in photoshop. Thanks! This was an amazing video. Very well done Gavin. Thank you for being who you are and sharing all your work. Im an out of condition old geezer as old as the Grumpmaster and as such I don't push myself! You and the Grumpmaster are a huge inspiration to me to get out there and collect some amazing images! Both Thumbs UP

    I've thought about photographing tall mountain peaks at dusk, my problem is with the hike back. Considering the Canadian Rockies is roaming with grizzly bears, I would not feel safe about hiking back to my car in the dark.

    Great video Gavin! I'm not much of a photography guy but that was great. I also do VLOG's of my hikes and scrambles in Banff, Kananaskis, Canmore and Lake Louise area. Mine however definitely don't have the "polish" that yours do. Very entertaining! Great job! Gave you a SUB.

    Hey Gavin, I'm really loving your videos but isn't the grid you have at 7:21 divided by four instead of three?

    • @fototripper
      @fototripper  5 лет назад +3

      depends how you look at it. Sadly my camera won't record footage with the grid on so I had to cobble together my own crappy version. I need to design a better one.

    @crissignori7482 5 лет назад

    Hey Gavin .... the bit about the polarizer blob is really useful but with respect to the composition it looks more like you're using the rule of 4ths or am I just seeing things? P.S. Drinking at the top of the mountain peak looks more than a bit risky. I hope you've got some kind of air bag type inflating device inside those backpacks for the descent down.
