  • A New Diversion: Video

    I’ve got a couple video cameras lying about and I’m making a conscious effort to use them more. That being said, you can check out our videos on YouTube by visiting: http://www.youtube.com/YosemiteBlog. Right now you can see some test video I shot from the iPhone 3G S and a couple short clips I shot on…

  • It’ll Make You Want to Play Hookie

    You gotta love the stuff the folks over at OpenRoad.tv are putting out. Here’s a 1 minute video that’ll make you want to call in sick and go to Yosemite.

  • A Minute in Yosemite

    While not kid wrangling today I got a couple minutes to shoot some video on my MinoHD. Really we were testing out a couple things on the iPhone 3G S but I love my Mino. They’re great little video cameras with pretty awesome quality. Watch the HD version and you’ll see. HQ version has artifacts…

  • Video: The Ahwahnee

    Here’s a great view inside the Ahwahnee from over on Youtube. Personally I “would” like to stay there one day but it’s a little too pampered for my taste. I’m a “blanket on the ground, rock under my head” kinda guy.

  • Interview: David AvRutick – Maker of Folbot Folding Kayaks

    Doing what I do I get to meet a lot of interesting people. David AvRutick is one of them. David is an avid outdoors man and is president/owner of a company that makes a very unique product, Folbot folding kayaks. Unlike regular rigid kayaks, Folbots assemble easily and in a short amount of time. They…

  • Video: Glacier Point to Yosemite Valley by Havemedia

    Havemedia posted this great video of the hike from Glacier Point to Yosemite Valley via the Panorama Trail and Mist Trail. My wife and I did this one a couple years back, it’s a bear. You’d think it is all downhill but no, you have to climb back up from Illilouette Fall. And uh…please don’t…

  • Video: Mist Trail to Vernal Fall by Debfunstuff

    Debfunstuff posted this video on YouTube of the Merced River and the Mist Trail. There’s still a lot of water coming down from the high country. The video gives you a pretty good idea why divers haven’t been able to get back in the river to look for signs of Katrin Lehmann who has been…

  • A Glimpse at the Yosemite of the Past

    Dane sent me a link this weekend via Twitter to this really interesting film real from the 1940’s. Yes, they used to feed bears by hand and would have nightly shows at the garbage dump with dozens of bears clambering for garbage so tourists could see. Thanks, Dane.

  • Hiking Half Dome with Doug McConnell

    I grew up watching public television like Trailside by John Viehman, former editor of Backpacker magazine and Huell Howser’s California’s Gold. Today I still enjoy catching Huell as he explores California but when I really miss being in the park I open my web browser and watch 5 minutes in Yosemite with Doug McConnell from…

  • Photo Video of the Day: When Tree Meets Car by Steven Bumgardner

    @YosemiteSteve (aka Steven Bumgardner from Yosemite Nature Notes) tweeted this tonight and I knew it had to be Photo Video of the Day. It’s not actually in Yosemite but you can’t help but laugh at the poor guys rotten luck of being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Great video, Steven.
