Burnt Ranch Gorge is a true classic. From steep committing gorges, to big rapids, and some fantastic scenery, it’s a run that every boater should take a trip to.
This trip to the gorge was a really special one for me because I got to show two friends down this run at one of my favorite flows, and we were blessed to see some massive bald eagles and a bear in the canyon. The ranch is a special place.
We posted a similar video from Jackson Kayak a few months back and it had a huge number of hits. This one from Palm Equipment is a nicely put together edit and is definitely worth sharing here on Unsponsored.
If you haven’t tried the Hand Of God rescue you need to add it to your paddling skills list.
This is Unsponsored. It’s Monday, it’s the 4th of July 2016 therefore it must be Movie Monday 4 July 2016.
That is all!
A beautifully put together edit.
Ever since I have been coming to Norway Benji was always there waiting to take us kayaking. His enthusiasm always made for such amazing times on and off the water. His huge smile and laugh could be seen and heard a mile away and he was always grinning ear to ear at the bottom of every rapid. This film is a compilation of footage from my years in Voss and some really lovely footage sent in by friends from all over the world!
Palm Equipment have updated the super popular Gradient boots for 2016. The previous version is firm favourite at Unsponsored HQ.
So what have Palm done to make the Gradient boots better?
We love tech here at Unsponsored HQ and when we can combine that love with the great outdoors it gives us a warm glow inside.
The GPS of choice up until very recently was a Garmin Foretrex 401 (as favoured by many members of the armed forces). It did its job well but I didn’t use a great deal of its features apart from getting a GPS location fix when things got a bit sticky. Although it did what I needed it to do technology has moved on and it’s always great to have an excuse to upgrade some tech.
After a couple of recommendations a Suunto Ambit 3 Peak was purchased.
We’ve had an original Petzl Vertigo here at Unsponsored HQ for a few years and have really liked it’s performance. Petzl have been on the case and have updated the Vertigo using i-beam technology. Just like the original the Petzl Vertigo has been primarily designed for ease of clipping in with the added bonus of having a locking key gate. The new construction has shaved off 2 grams.
It’s been a warm weekend with heavy rain over night at Unsponsored HQ. Sounds just perfect but just not enough of the water landing in the right places, so paddling this weekend has been limited. Anyway the new working week has begun. This is what you could have won. Welcome to Movie Monday 27 June 2016.
Unsponsored HQ happens to be right on the route for the British Cycling National Championships, so today has been spent behind the camera.
The vast majority of images were taken using a Nikon D7100 and Nikkor 70-200mm VRII lens. However some were shot with a Nikkor 50mm lens.
I had to check my calendar to make sure it was actually June when I stumbled upon this.
It’s all going to be about playing the river this year.
