Lochsa River 2023 High Water 15k-17k
The Lochsa River is one of the best early season runs out there with it being free flowing you never know what kind of day your going to get. This river provides massive Grand Canyon style wave trains but all in all i would say pretty low consequence considering its a roadside attraction. Here's a video from May 2023 on a surprisingly sunny weekend our crew went out for some entertaining runs. Enjoy!

Captain Ahab Trail | Moab, Utah Mountain Biking
zhlédnutí 167Před 3 lety
This is one of my favorite trails i've ridden to date, a steady uphill climb from the trailhead on Kane Springs Rd just southwest of town. Starts off on the HyMasa Trail with some slick rock and some beautiful scenery over the course of an hour you will have one of the most demanding climbs of your life but i promise it will all be worth it. Upper and Lower Captain Ahab trails are very exposed ...
5000 ft of Descent | Mountain Biking Blacktail Mountain to Herron Park | Montana MTB
zhlédnutí 862Před 3 lety
From the top of Blacktail Mountain overlooking the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, the views are unbeatable! This ride requires a vehicle shuttle unless you want to have one of the biggest uphill days of your life, but to make it a fun filled downhill day with minimal climbing you can park a vehicle at Herron Park near Kalispell, MT and take the bikes and another vehicle to the...
Epic MTB Riding on The Ribbon Trail | Grand Junction, Colorado
zhlédnutí 1,5KPřed 3 lety
This was my first time riding the famous Ribbon Trail in Grand Junction, Colorado. This trail was unlike any other trail i've ever ridden as you descend at high speeds across huge slabs of granite then eventually end up at the top of the Lunch Loops area of GJ. Although this trail is rated as a black diamond on Trail Forks there are a few spots that are super technical that most will walk. Make...
Mount Reynolds Summit Glacier National Park
zhlédnutí 1,5KPřed 3 lety
Enjoy this video of just one of many beautiful mountain summits in Glacier!! Reynolds being one of the easier more accessible summits in the park we made our approach late afternoon in July to have a wonderful sunset from the top. This was the easiest of the routes but still required some route finding skills to the summit.

All free flowing water from the mount...
HiLine Trail | Sedona, Arizona MTB (Double Black)
zhlédnutí 285Před 4 lety
One of the best trails is Sedona, Arizona!! With a challenging climb to the top and wonderful views of the valley below it feels like your inching your way across a tight rope. Once your up its all downhill from there with some fun flowy switchbacks and some amazing red rock features it doesn't get much better then this.

The Wild Mile 2018 CARNAGE Big Fork, Montana (Pre Whitewater festival) Class 5
zhlédnutí 1,6KPřed 6 lety
The Wild Mile is a Class 5 mile long stretch in Big Fork, Montana that can be quite hazardous at high water levels as shown in this video. This was my first experience paddling strong water like this and i realized quickly of things that can go wrong in a blink of an eye and what i did to take hold of the situation. Just days before the Big Fork Whitewater festival fellow guides and i took a fe...
love that climb!! 14 times.... love everything about it. the access route is stable (not all scree) and the scramble to the peak is fun with some exposure. then.... the views. Hidden Lake. Lake McDonald. Logan Pass. St. Mary Valley...... woohoo!!! thanks for the video!! i'm 70 yrs. old na dretire4d in Ecuador. I last climbed it last about 10 years ago. didn't ever take video - just pics. thanks again.
Dang, that guy was doing some pretty big water in that ducky! Impressive.
Love your group's attitude, love your tunes. If you need an extra on your next trip let me know lol
Doing a trip this sept-oct your lines were clean! Thanks for posting
How long did it take you from Blacktail mountain to Herron Park?
@@mpegvdo roughly 6 hours or so
Montana is gross, disgusting and so polluted …..if you go you will get sick…Chernobyl like….so much mining ….see the protective suits they wear. Dangerous STAY AWAY!
Ride em, cowboy!
Great video
You had me at the opening tunes🎶
awsmmmm.........
Absolutely gorgeous! I regret not adventuring more when I lived in MT. What month was this filmed? Cheers from Alaska
Bathing day for Condomboaters
This is a really well-done video, and one I've pointed out to my daughter who will be coming with me on a trip at the end of April. I'm also really happy to see others standing while rowing, which I'm a proponent of.
Awesome footage. More please
That opening boat flip is some of my friends, on our trip there. We got a picture of people just floating in the air underneath an upside down boat 😂😂😂 My friend Jackie was guiding that That whole group of first boat flips were our guys. I’ll upload some video eventually 😂😂😂
Another wonderful video completely destroyed by stupid background noise
Hey buddy no one cares keep you sadness to yourself
I care Alex. He is right
That looks like at least Class II 😁😁!!
crazy town.
I felt the stoke!! 🤘🏼
What camera did you use to film the rapids?
GoPro Hero 5
Thanks for your delightful medium low water trip down the Middle Fork. I’ve had the privilege to do four trips down the MF. The last one was in 1980 or 81 when we didn’t have self bailing rafts yet. Thanks again for your trip tour down this marvelous river. Would like to know the flow?
Hi Alex....are you giving tours? When does the season end? I'm interested. :-)
Y’all fly into Schaefer?
Amazing adventure!
I’m looking to buy a Kokopelli. What raft were you using? What was your tie down set up in the front for your gear?
That's a Kokopelli Nirvana. It's a great little raft.
What time of year was this trip?
please post this without music, the recorded audio was great!
Spectacular scenery and lots of things going on - enough to speak about for a lifetime! Sideways approach to such waves is not good, nor is it ever advisable; and there's a lot of it in this video. Perhaps, the boats are too much (too big, too heavy, for arms not strong, or quick, enough) to handle?! Seeing how you jump in the water and float: do you get wet under those costumes?
Beautiful!!!🏜una Maravilla del mundo". Gran cañón colorado para disfrutarlo y vivirlo sensaciones de libertad y belleza pura ,salvaje".SUBLIME BELLEZA DE DIOS"".BelloVideo....saludos de🇨🇱🗻...
Looks like a great trip.
Awesome video! I was fortunate to make that trip a few years ago with my son, Lowen and Liz and their crew or paddle heads! We were able to make the trip due to a cancelation, and on short notice, they got an outfitter to set us up, and away we went! It was an honor and a privilege to be included!!!
We ran Crystal at 55,000 cfs back in 83 the standing wave was HUGE Your video is very well done brings back memories thank you 🙏
fabuloso
Epic! Wish I could draw a permit.
I can't find much on a route for this mountain. Was coming down fairly obvious?
It's not obvious. Even climbers with experience in route finding get Cliffed out on this descent.
been there, done that. is truly the river of no return...
The fish jumping was just crazy….lol! Great video!
Superbly done. I’ve run the canyon 4 times, once private. Such an amazing place.
So glad I found this video. I'm TL on a trip putting on June 22, 2022 and the forecast is looking like river conditions much like what you saw. How was camping/finding camps? How many people in your group. What size were the rafts? Cheers!
We had 8 people and camps I’m pretty sure we’re pre assigned but it could be different now. We took a 13ft and a 16ft
How did you deal with batteries . Did you Solar charge or take lots ?
What was the cfs during your trip?
8-12k
Looks cool.
What was the water level? When did you float?
Would love to know this as well.
I was wondering the same thing. I’ve fished the middle fork of the Flathead numerous times in the complex, but typically in late August/early Sept (right before Elk season) and the water is way lower than this. Still some good water for rafting, but more conducive to fishing. Absolutely insanely beautiful no matter when you go!
Excellent. Brought back good memories of our trip down the Canyon.
Exceptional video and photos! Thank you for sharing.
Amazing and impressive!!!
Fantastic footage! Thanks so much for sharing!!🌊
Good trip man! What was the gauge?
真的是十分漂亮的旅程， wonderful trip in the life；
Wow, you really did a great job making this video.
