Footage from Katahdin

Back in June of 2010 Myself along with a few other eager adventurers set out for Baxter state park in northern Maine to climb to the northern terminus of the Appalachian Trail on Baxter Peak, Katahdin. Though our focus was to hike the mountain, and take in the magnificent views that Maine has to offer, I was able to snag some video of the area, here is a video highlighting a fantastic trip. Enjoy!

Adventure Racin’

Thanks to The Gear Junkie , this weekend I got to experience my first ever Adventure race. For those of you who are unaware, an adventure race generally consists of two elements: orienteering/navigation, as well as some form of adventure travel(running, boating, climbing, etc). Sundays event took place at Explore park in Roanoke, VA and was the first event of its kind put on by the Gear Junkie. Racers where provided a map which had numbered locations with a topographical hint and well as GPS Coordinates. Of course there was a purpose to this race, $40,000 dollars worth of gear.
