I’m in Alaska this week, heliskiing with a group of friends. We’ve got up in the heli for two days so far, and done a day of cat skiing. While it is cloudy and a bit foggy the snow is great. We’re hoping for a blue-bird day before our time is up.
I’m posting photos to Google+ as the week progresses.
My parents gave me a ContourHD helmet camera for Christmas. Last weekend we were in Park City, Utah, for the Sundance Film Festival, so I got a chance to try it out while snowboarding. There’s no way to check the footage on the camera itself, so it is be quite hard to get set up properly. As you can see from the following video it turns out I spend a lot of my time snowboarding with a tilted head.

And yes, that is me crashing into a tree at 0:29. And yes, it did hurt. I ended off with rather bruised ribs.
