Mount Bachelor Photo of the Week!!



We got some bluebird conditions with excellent snow today. Got some shots of Seth near the tower 21 traverse and the season's first video footage with the Cookie Composite video camera mounting system. The footage was pretty lousy due to the camera auto focusing on the dirt on the lens...lame! First impression is that this system beats the pants off of Viosport. The AV connection between the Sony and the Viosport were very challenging to maintain. The Cookie system is a lot cheaper with more reliability and higher resolution....I have a hunch it's going to help a lot to clean the lens next time too.
