sun, son!

finally! we had the first sunny day since we got to baker. and what a day it was! bluebird awaited us in the resort, but we had other plans for today. burton filmer corey koniniec was guiding us, he is local here in baker and knows pretty much every possible spot. thanks for that, buddy! we hiked up a mellow ridge, already got some nice shots on the way up.

on the very top, we had an incredible view on mt. baker and mt. shuksan, the peak 'behind' the baker resort. its said to be the world's most photographed mountain, so the intro pic to this blog entry is mt. baker to get this peak a bit more exposure and even out the balance a bit.

tried some egocams on sani today. the backpack was broken again, but this time i gut it fixed with massive alloy sticks that connect the mount with the backpack. however, the long version of the arm ist still a bit too long so i might just use the hacksaw once again to find a handy ratio between usability and look.

after 6 or 7 spots, we called it a day and went back down to glacier to buy some beer. meanwhile, the cabin smells of expensive flouride wax, as sani, mu and christian will do the qualifyer for the banked slalom tomorrow and hell, the guys are taking it serious! we'll hopefully get back to you tomorrow with some euro-pride news!

and now for the rest of the beer... cheers!
