Really great video of a great area. Liked the use of the different altitude levels and the little quick summery towards the end. Looking forward to seeing more.

Another good one PKPhantom. Nice use of light & dark areas.
Really interesting topography well captured by the Phantom.
Yeah, the mixture of light and dark areas was a little bit of a challenge. But I tried everything possible to find a balance to compensate for both. Glad that it turned out ok.
You are right, the topography in this place is out of this world.

Thanks so much for your feedback. I figured the only way to really make this place stand out is by the use of multi altitude flights. At first, I was a little skeptical with this approach but I'm glad to know that it turned out ok.
As for the video compilation summary towards the end, I just had to throw that in there in order to match the music to the beat.

Thanks so much Captain. I am surprised how come you didn't comment on the loudness of the soundtrack. ha ha
Hahaha, I was watching the Edmonton Oilers getting schooled by the Annehiem Ducks. 6-3
So I had the iPad volume turned off. Let me go back and listen... ;-)
Wow, what a bold and attention gathering soundtrack. No it was just right. Not too loud for me.Must be from all them concerts and my lifestyle, on the noisy SpYder RS-S. Hearing loss.
I really enjoyed the scenery on this video, from the Stoney to the Deep Drink. I bet it is great fishing there too.

Ha ha. Very funny. That was an insane game.
Yeah, Colorado river surrounding offers some of the best scenery. As for fishing, there is population of all kind, but notably four of the species are considered endangered and they don't exist anywhere else in the world except Colorado river. The Humpback and Bonytail Chubs are two of them.
Wait a minute. You have one of those Can-am? I've always wondered how they rode. With their slick appearance I anticipated a super quiet ride. Is that not the case? Nothing close to a Hurley's rumble though, correct?

Hahaha, it's good that you have a great sense of humor.
Yes, I own a '13 Can Am SpYder RS-S Roadster. It's a sweet rYde, and very comfortable.
Perhaps much quieter than a Harley and the Davidson's bike, but pretty loud non the less. I only wear a 3/4 sized helmet, so it can get pretty loud. Even the wind can howl in my ears, while traveling highway cruising speed. No rumble, just a swift rush. ;-)
Perhaps I should just invest in a box of disposable earplugs.

Very nice! I wish I lived closer to you. I would take that thing for a ride. If you would let me, that is, lol.

Wow.. another wonderful video.. Thanks for sharing such fantastic scenery. It is amasing. (didn't find the climbers btw) :-)
What? I'm surprised you couldn't see the rock climbers. Here is the cheat sheet.....Look at 3.40 through 3.45. Left hand side on the rocks......Do you see them now? ha ha.
Anyway, thanks for your feedback. Thanks for the kind words too. Very much appreciated.

Two of them, above the cars (toward the back).. Unfortunately it's a little dark for me and they are not easy to see. I think youtube has compress it a bit... I can, now you've mentioned it, possibly see two figures with helmets, but I am only assuming it's the climbers due to what you've said and because they are above the cars.
Interestingly, where the hell where you? :-)

The cars parked on the side of the road near the rock structures....those are all rock climbers.
