**Trackhead** · 03-30-2007, 01:44 PM

A short 2:30 minute vid of a fun pow day in March. After 3 weeks of 65+ degree temps in the valley, and melting snow, it was nice to get one last powder day in March.

Quicktime7 32mb-best viewed at 1/3 screen size

Windows High Definition 113mb Best to right click and 'save as'. Will need speedy computer to view smoothly

Me, JoshP, and Trady are going on a nice tour with multiple peak bagging tomorrow. Welcome to join us.

Josh and I are fat, slow, and very out of shape, so Trady will be carrying all the gear and breaking trail all day.

Q: are you able to encode for quicktime in full resolution?

edit: it's pretty, very pretty. thanks!

**powstash** · 03-30-2007, 02:23 PM

That felt good, real good. Thanks for the ride.

And thanks for the motivational phone call - it got me out last night and then again this morning. I'm back in the winter business.

Yes, but QT7 at full resolution is a processor whore, and plays pretty crappy on many computers. For some reason, it just takes more horsepower to play h.264 QT7 than it does WMV.

Nice skiing Josh and nice video Derek.

Derek (the one up here) and i will be skiing refrozen crap up here tomorrow. You should make another road trip.

Great vid, I was starting to miss your regular broadcasts!
Sure shows me how S@#$% my computer is becoming.
If I can ask Trackhead, what software do you use?

**HikeforTurns** · 03-30-2007, 02:34 PM

Vegas 7d.

I am shooting with the new Pany SD1 HDV cam. It records in AVCHD format to Sandisk flash cards. 40 min footage per 4gb card. Only clincher is virtually no editing software recognizes AVCHD yet. Vegas should support it this spring. So right now, it's a pain in the ass in the workflow.

Maybe I'll throw in some roast beef sandwiches, a sixer, and some cheesecake, just in case you guys can't keep up.

Psyched to watch the vid tonight. Quicktime is a no-no at work.

Thank you TH. I'm trying to do everything possible to not get a grant written and that absolutely made my day.

I need to get more pow before the my season comes to an end.

**Long Duck Dong** · 03-30-2007, 09:27 PM

Hate. You. Guys. Sersla.

**JoshP** · 03-30-2007, 09:38 PM

Fun smokey pow

Damn fun morning, good to have the stoke back, and nice to see some new snow. Here is to a few more weeks of winter before it is bike season for good.

**jibij** · 03-30-2007, 10:06 PM

I am really impressed with the quality of the image from a relatively cheap camera.

I was really expecting that footage to be coming from a $4000 camera.

nice work.
