Mountaineering Instructional Video question

Recommended Posts

Anyone have any idea of a US film sort of like this one: (or even where I can order that one from)

I want to take some friends up mountaineering and want to give them something they can watch before they get here to get a jump start on the learning curve. The basics of Mountaineering is all is has to teach. Crampon use/self arrest/roping techniques/crevasse rescue/ect would be ideal. I've searched everywhere for such a thing and can't seem to find it! Thanks ahead of time!

Tons of free information/videos on YouTube. Mike Barter is a prolific YouTube poster and has put a lot of work into some informative and very thoughtful posts. The Mountaineering Council Of Scotland also has some great videos for sale (http://www.mcofs.org.uk/shop-dvds.asp). Seems to me you can also find some of excerpts on YouTube as well. Doesn't originate in US, but why would you care?

I didn't care that it wasn't from the U.S. I just didn't want to order something from New Zealand and have it take 2 months to get here is all =) Thank you for the info! I'm looking into the you tube posts right now. (didn't even think to look there)
