billcoe Posted February 27, 2012 Posted February 27, 2012 Wednesday March 7 2012 at the Mazamas (527 Southeast 43rd Avenue, Portland, OR 97215). FREE! John Frieh will be narrating the climb that he, Zac West and Dave Burdick did of the first ascent of the Burkett Needle's east arete. Maybe John can show up with some pictures here later at some point to amp the pre-show stokage...... http://www.alpinist.com/doc/web11f/newswire-needle-in-a-storm BTW, I wandered into that Mazamas auditorium and they have a small but kick assed climbing wall with cracks and everything.
powderhound Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Its today!!! and i wish I wasn't in stupid roseburg so that I could join.
John Frieh Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 Tonight. 7 pm. Free. I cant emphasize enough how hard Dave worked on the movie... it is so much more than random GoPro footage stitched together. I really think you guys will be impressed. A small sample. I would be stoked... and maybe a little surprised... if Portland took an interest in something besides Beacon Rock.
Plaidman Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 I am looking forward to seeing this event tonight. I am getting Jim O. to get out and see it too.
YocumRidge Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 I am getting Jim O. to get out and see it too. !
Plaidman Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 If you weren't there you missed a good one. I thought the video was worthy to be submitted to the Banff Film Festival. Great footage, really well edited, and entertaining. Great job guys!
billcoe Posted March 8, 2012 Author Posted March 8, 2012 Ditto! I'd like to say that my post upthread is incorrect. All 3 of the lads were present and it was Dave who did the solid job on the narration. Bravo Good times!
MJaso Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Definitely some preseason stoke! If I understood correctly the heli shuttles 2 plus gear. A three man team means there's an empty slot. Untapped potential.........
chubler Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 +1 for submitting to a short film fest! Well done guys - great presentation, good info and an excellent film. Can't wait to see what comes of out of Middle Peak this year for you.
John Frieh Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Thanks all. It was very cool to see so many familiar faces in the crowd. I'm looking forward to the Seattle show which yes we dont have a date just yet. Stay tuned. Many thanks to the Mazamas for hosting!
YocumRidge Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Great show guys! Already looking forward to the part II. That couloir looked amazing !
Plaidman Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 You Seattle guys. Don't miss this one. Smash and Grab ... Awesome!
hippos_are_evil Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Really cool show guys. +1 on submit video, that was really well done.
