  2. I don't know ... could've used a little Aerosmith "Sweet Emotion" in there somewhere ... Hey from Livingston - Pat's taller half here - I see KT and yourself have the same "statural" differences as Pat and I - watch your neck :) Real nice work by all on the film.

    1. Hey Eric, thanks amigo. It's hard to juxtapose the serious nature of avalanches, while still keeping the fun factor high.. Suppose that's the nature of it though. :)

  5. I agree with Eric, loved the tone, especially in the write-up accompanying the video on TGR's site. I think you balanced the serious/fun ratio perfectly. Thanks for the stoke, as always.
