Crater Lake National Park // Skiing Short Shots for the View

[@difamigiliaagosto6110]

This channel is so underrated and deserves so much attention.

[@aweirick1]

It’s mediocre at best, the guy is a simple amateur..... lol

[@MovementTrainingCo]

Totally agree! Love these guys.

Legit, been here since around 10-12 k and the quality is always so good

I love how they never make a video just to meet an uploading schedule.. means the video will always have something interesting and not just be done gear review etc

[@king812345678]

i mean, they've been posting semi-regular gear reviews on their other channel in between trips

[@2Chonky2Furious]

I legitimately get giddy when I see a new episode pop up on my feed. How do we promote this channel so it can get the millions of views it deserves?

[@shawnwalden2669]

i share on FB. doubt it helps a lot but ....I also buy merch

[@ryanf.4149]

I feel the same way. The video quality is amazing, and the videos are always extremely interesting, I think millions would love to watch it, I just don’t know how we could help get it out there.

Crux of the climb: crossing the road.

[@JevenDovey]

Those views are epic. Such a rad spot to go skiing

[@PerfDayToday]

Nice lads.. come back w your pack rafts and you can ski the Wizard Island cone! 😎 In 2010 I did a 3 day ski around the rim.. highly recommend if you dig that kind of ⛷⛷ing/snow camping. Cheers from Oregon

[@alexbarth1904]

You should do the Three Sisters Marathon this summer! Climbing all of the Three Sisters in a day, ~16mi ~10k vert I believe. Sort of the Oregon equivalent of one of those long ridge link-ups you tend to do. Seems like the kind of thing you'd be into, would make a great video!

[@youhonsing]

Mount Bailey. To the NW of CLNP is worth it. Big snow, huge descents.

[@exceptionaladventures3939]

Yes! The best notification to wake up to. That powder was so awesome.

[@matthewgose6645]

This is the most underrated channel on youtube! NEVER QUIT DANNY WE LOVE YOU ❤️

[@AncientAccomplishments]

I have been going through MA withdrawals for a while now and finally getting my fix! VIRTUAL SHERPA is a really good hiking channel too if anyone finds themselves itching for some MA.

[@andrewbarr3378]

Same here! I do enjoy Virtual Sherpa and Cody Townsend’s the 50 is excellent too. Billy Yang, Salomon and the North Face put out some good short films, but I think MA are a country mile above the rest. I love the mix of running, biking and skiing!

[@amandadossett5088]

What!? U guys were in the nordic capital of the US! Shoulda gone big and done the 50k Crater Lake circumnavigation! Though its a lot easier to do it with a metal edged nordic ski cuz u can get some nice fast gliding in on the flats.

[@brete1965]

I live about an hour from Crater Lake. The prettiest place I’ve ever been to. Probably made 30-40 visits over my life and always amazed at it’s beauty.

[@southwestxnorthwest]

Probably the only channel I would consider buying and wearing a T-Shirt

[@bobbyenglish7803]

Sometimes it's all about the scenery and the skiing is secondary. Looked like a great day out!

[@austinado16]

ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE DRY HUMOR! And can we all pause for a moment and reflect on what kind of dedication to training, fitness, and health, it takes to do these adventures, and make them look like absolutely nothing. You guys are machines!

[@garypearlphotography]

No need to splain the skiing.....eyes wide open! Magnificent!

[@mobilewintercamp7515]

I don’t ski. Your channel came up from the algorithm from watching cross country ski stuff. I watch you occasionally since last winter. As skiers you made the right choice. Over the past two weeks alone I’ve seen multiple avalanche deaths on You Tube with snowmobilers and snowboarders. As a video maker it was nice to see the view, thanks

[@mobilewintercamp7515]

I meant to say as a video maker it was nice of you to show us the view, thanks

[@melissabruemmer6748]

I’m glad you guys chose a safe place to ski. I live in western Wyoming and there have been so many deaths around here lately from avalanches!

[@robertsuess1206]

Safe place, glad they got some downhill that wasn't so firm packed they could actually make a turn! hiking on a brick!

[@austincampbell9275]

as an 18 year old the life you live excites me, so i have to know. what do you do for a living to be able to travel like you do

[@andrewbarr3378]

Christoph is a pilot, Matt is/was a Geography professor at BYU (though from his insta, he almost seems to be a full time adventurer now) and I’m not sure about Danny. They seem to be salt of the Earth weekend warriors, who take day trips to Arizona, Colorado and Wyoming and if they need to go further, Matt can fly choppers and planes so takes them even further. They all have great Instagram accounts, particularly Matt!

[@sanzquerol]

90% skins 10% ski 100% FUN, just being out there... what a view. Keep it up :)

[@BadHikers]

Ah the great road crossing of 2021. Great vid, Crater Lake is forsure on the list.

[@vbrvideoproductions4643]

It's such an injustice that this channel doesn't have 100,000's or even a 1,000,000 subs :(

[@herodotus7]

The amount of snow there in June... is amazing.

[@pablomarani3799]

When I saw Christopher's headband I thought that maybe in some part of the route some sort of tennis was going to be displayed... Anyway, your videos are awesome! Thank you!

[@cnuila]

I’ve found terry cloth is the only material that will absorb the copious amounts of sweat I produce😅

[@andrewstiff494]

New Mediocre Amateur video! Today is going to be a great day!

[@OscarGolf21]

Last time I was in Crater several years ago, a massive wildfire was encroaching. They close the road and had us exist through the backside of the park. What a contrast in experience. Beautiful video work. You guys should go ski the Steens Range, Fields Station has a good milkshake.

[@CarterThiessen]

This is the only channel that I have notifications for. That's how good this channel is

[@amysthe-wise-one8493]

I'm with Matt in this: If it's pretty, I'm in. Full-on agree there. And those views were oh so pretty.

[@cooperstewart549]

Sierra Nevada’s are looking pretty safe for avy danger, you guy should head there next

[@joshuajubb7950]

Used to be my local zone from Klamath falls. Check out Mt Thielsen and Mt Bailey in the same area. Also, you guys should ski Garfield peak next time. Park at the lower visitor center and find the ski track by the residences on the XC loop.

[@danieldurfee420]

What about skiing the rim down to water’s edge? That’s the line I want in Crater.

[@cycle61]

Looks like there’s some couloirs that might go, or you could take the trail down to the service dock, lol.

[@SomeDudeSomewhereOverThere]

lol...just mentioning the word avalanche will cause one. So true. Love the videos!

[@ChrisWColeman]

Please don't feed the wildlife. Especially on a channel/video with thousands of viewers. You all make great videos - just don't ruin it with LNT/rule/law breaking.

[@cnuila]

Easy on the public shaming, lol!. That bird dive bombed from a tree and snatched a nut right out of my hand as I was about to eat it. We set up the camera to see if it would be so bold to come back and pick up the rest that it just KNOCKED OUT OF MY HAND. If we’re ever feeding the bears or bringing doggie treats for the wolves please speak up though.

[@ChrisWColeman]

@@cnuila oh, come on Christof. You gave food to a bird, filmed it, and put it on youtube. Don't play the victim here. This encourages other people to feed birds. Your actions directly influence other adventurers. It's simple - just don't publish videos of you feeding wildlife. It's our responsibility as outdoorsmen to keep nature wild. The birds are aggressive because they get food from humans. Every interaction where the birds are rewarded they become more brave. We all know camp robbers / grey jays are bold - unfortunately they also decimate other bird populations. Please - don't feed the birds, if you accidently do - don't put your mistake online to encourage others.

[@cnuila]

@@ChrisWColeman No victim here, just telling the story of what happened. I think we agree in principle, but our opinions on what constitutes a “mistake” and “feeding wildlife” are a bit apart. I hope you were still able to enjoy something about the video.

[@arjunski]

Finally you're back! Been waiting for a new video! :)

[@johnbarroll1120]

What happens when it's warm? Is the snowpack, all 20 ft of it, firm enough to support your avg 180lb human on skis? Avalanche???

[@UltraDad]

Between Kristof’s headband and Matt’s rhyming it’s no shock the wives stay home for these trips! Where did you get that headband by the way ... I want one too!

[@cnuila]

That headband is a rare limited edition that only those with $4.99 and an Amazon account can get. Good luck😜

[@nobielobie]

What do you guys film on other than a gopro? I can’t quite tell but it looks like there are some higher qual shots interspersed throughout.? Let me know! Curious as I have been bringing my gopro out on tours as well and would love to hear what kind of camera gear you guys are bringing out there and maybe I’ll have to take a page from you and kick it up a notch!

[@afben12]

Y’all should do the Virginia Triple Crown Loop. 30 miles and nearly 8,000ft of climbing some of the hardest sections of the AT trail

[@RowOfMushyTiT]

Christoph's headband is 🔥🔥🔥

[@cnuila]

The finest that $4.99 will get you on Amazon😁

[@WillN2Go1]

You know the Gear Review tag that popped up? By the time I reach for my mouse to click on it, it's gone. And then if I back up to go back over that section it never shows up again. Maybe leave them up longer? (And in most cases I can either leave your video and go to the link, or nothing happens, but I can't do the smart thing with is, "Open in a new tab" Crater Lake looks amazing, I've got both my shots (old dude) so I should drive up - what am I waiting for? The Oregonian Highway Patrol didn't pull you guys and your Utah plates off the road so I might just get away with California plates. But driving a Tesla? Maybe that'd be pushing it. But, I'd probably just die up there, because I did not have that one piece of essential equipment you cover on your Gear Review Channel that I can't get too. Thanks guys.

[@rutterj2]

This video made it to Unofficial Networks, you've lost your amateur status. Seriously though, this channel is the ruler by which all outdoor/ adventure channels are measured. Prioritizing quality over quantity is so refreshing when compared to channels that put out content on a schedule. Thank you and please keep this going.

[@markdavis8888]

The Raven trail is a 100 feet to the right of the road and is marked with blue diamonds, but then you can park on the rim. Oregon's only national park is a special gem. Every few years I do the 1 day circumnavigation light and fast. Just did it yesterday.

[@moecantileverjr]

All things considered good. Thx Danny. #Peterborough amature

[@ChewieTomatoes1]

Did Blake and you guys have a falling out?

[@dtn311]

On Blake's Instagram a while back he mentioned that due to a banged up knee and a demanding new job he's pretty much sidelined indefinitely from MA. He's probably also turned back into Fat Blake with all the time off.

[@cnuila]

To the contrary, Blake has had some pretty serious injury challenges and also he has his priorities straight devoting time to family and career. Meanwhile us lost boys are left missing his presence.

[@ChewieTomatoes1]
