Saw this after “how to vlog and tell a story”. I am in awe how well the raw footage was edited with music to create this piece that held my interest throughout. You are a master of your craft and I am grateful that you share your insights and techniques with the rest of the world.

Core memory unlocked . Remember being there when I was like 12 thinking that it’s the most reckless building ever built
That's Butler's Peak! Last I went there, I was 5 or 6 years old, and I'm forty now, but I swear that's the place. We went multiple times and I remember feeling sad the last time we were there because the place was closed. It was always open before then, and I remembered the rangers being really friendly people.

That is Butler Peak. I haven’t been there since the last huge winter of the mid 2000’s when we climbed up from Highway 18 (front side) and skied the lines dropping down from the peak. If you like steep backcountry stuff, and they get snow like we have this year, this is definitely something for your bucket list. There are actually a few great lines above Highway 18, but now you need to buy an Adventure Pass to park and climb up to ski them.
*this video is the perfect example of how a drone can take your story telling to a who new level. Great video.*
I’ve watched the story telling vlog so many times now you have taught me so many things. Happy to see you pieced this footage bavk together for this channel. Thanks for the inspiration.
I saw this video after your tutorial on making this video. Well done, this is the type of VLOG's I want to create.
This is awesome to watch- especially after watching the video of all it took first you to put it together. 💥 Thanks for both videos!! Thanks for your time and effort! ❤
Very well done. You're an inspiration to future Vlogers and story-tellers everywhere. Best regards from Las Vegas.
I literally gasped and said "wooooow" in that big payoff drone shot at the summit. Great film buddy!

Haha so true. My parents were wondering how I was gonna carry all my gear up when they saw my backpack. It's always tough to decide what to bring because when you leave something behind then you end up needing it when out shooting

I take it the door is locked so you couldn't get inside? That's a shame I would've liked to see inside it. And also what that smaller building is. Still a great video though.
I watch this video after watching your video about "How to Vlog & Tell a Story For Beginners From Start To Finish" on your main channel. Really appreciate your hard work. I am a motovlogger from India and trying to make this type of video but failed many times due to family & office responsibility and also lack of time & knowledge. But, I will try & try till that time where my dreams come true. Please upload much more tutorial video with real time experience which gives better idea to new content creator. Love from FDR family. God bless you and your family.
This looks fun I love you all there where is this place

This video is really awesome. Just watched some of your tutorials and feel really inspired to get into a bit of editing having just bought a motor home and planning plenty of trips in the Uk and Europe when travel is permitted again. One question i have is how do you edit the audio so that the video changes on the beat every time. This really adds quality to the finish but seems difficult to achieve through the whole video. I have just downloaded Shotcut to start playing with around with this. a tutorial on this would be amazing. Awesome channel, absolutely loving it!!!

Right after the view switches from carrying the bike to looking at the trail in front of you, is that a human skull in the middle of the trail?
