The weather isn't looking so pretty for the next few days - 3000m freezing level with tons of rain. Can you say rain crust?

I guess an epic november could only go so far. at least there is a huge base

yah I tilted it up and then adjusted the side to side orientation for subsequent vids.

So far the ContourHD goggle mount is my favourite mount. I've tried the GoPro Headband mount and its ok but I'm hoping for good things out of the helmet mount

Oh, so you got your hands on the ContourHD now? POV cameras still shows them as pre-order only. I'm considering ordering one ... maybe you can fire me a discount code ...
