Backcountry Powder Skiing - No Music - POV - 1 Hour

By popular request here is 1 hour of backcountry powder skiing without any music, just natural sounds captured by the GoPro camera. This is the same footage, taken from the other Chillhop videos but I have had numerous requests for a ski edit without music so I decided to make one. I hope you enjoy it.
Most of the skiing was shot in Idaho, there are a few clips from Utah and one or two from Colorado. All of this was filmed lift free, meaning no lifts were used in the making of this video. 100% pure backcountry skiing.

See if you can find the one non-POV shot in this. Let me know what timestamp you find in the comments.

36:28ish! Great video! Love the sounds of the wind, the grunts, the pole taps, the snow! Hard to watch this in October while awaiting the first snow! The stoke is real!

At 2 seconds into the video, a skiier jumped just below you to the left,.. although it looks more like you jumped over him

Watching this from France. I only skied once 30 years ago for a week. Loved it but never did it again. I am now 48 but just decided I'll do it again. And I'm starting by watching your video. Watched for 30 mn and am now heading to bed with those wonderful feelings in my mind and body. I am already skiing again. Thanks to you.

[@AthelstanEngland]

Please start on a slightly easier slope though!!! :)

[@forteandblues]

Wow, I’m born and raised in Colorado, I can “get down” double blacks but the way you are so casual and smooth is so impressive.

[@forteandblues]

Also, that little cliff you hucked in the beginning was amazing dude. You are who I dream of skiing like.

[@quicktolaughter]

Thank you for this. It’s pleasing my ski bum sweetie who is fighting cancer right now. We need the ski sounds - excellent 🔥❤️🏆❤️🔥

[@DanNoakes]

My condolences. I hope your sweetie is doing alright. Please send them my support and love.

I'm laying in bed watching this because I couldn't sleep, and now I'm exhausted! Stunning terrain, I'm with you, turn for turn!

[@brianrutz1413]

Non POV at 36:28. Awesome vid Dan. This gets me so hyped for the season. There’s nothing like being alone in the fresh backcountry pow!

[@DanNoakes]

Nailed it!

[@SkiCounseler]

One of my favorite ski videos. Some wonderful powder runs with lots of slalom turns to maneuver around the brush. Also a good lesson on route finding. I use it for mental prep for the season. I identified with that spill you took at around the 41 minute mark. Sometimes I can hit a pile of snow too "fat" and it snaps shut on me like a trap.

[@SonnyJim789]

One word...
Beautiful

[@panoptijohn]

Idaho looks amazing! Reminds me of the powder here in Hakuba.

[@beauzero]

Thanks Dan. For the same reasons as always. Thanks for posting this. Dude I forgot how much I just miss the sound of the wind.

[@DanNoakes]
