    Thumbs up VIDEO: Presidential Traverse (Go Pro 1080p)

    What an epic trip. Me and two friends tackle the Presidential Traverse in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. It is 19.4 miles with 9,000 feet of elevation gain. This was truly a hike of a lifetime. As you can tell in the video, we were pretty spent near the end.

    Here is our route on the Cal Topo map I created: http://caltopo.com/map?id=1023

    I hope you enjoy the video. It is 1080p, so crank it up on the big screen at home if you can.

    Also, comment or "like" if it was any good. It's always good to hear from you. Take care!

    Very cool. Sooo different than my last trip, above the tree line vs in the heart of the deep woods. Great work!

    Some crazy views on that hike! Curious, were you using a polarizer at all on the camera? Thanks!

    Thanks Silent Bob. You should definitely make it up this way. Just be sure to keep an eye on the weather and pick a good day- makes all the difference.
