DANG, I thought you all had yet to complete these.
I have to say me and my wife spent quite some time last night viewing the Whites, and my 2 boys watched several (hand selected for content) of them this morning !
Great work, guys. I'd pay money to see them all together somewhere.
 
the triple-dog-dare of the tongue-on-a-frozen-flagpole reference on Slide is most entertaining.

I think you could sell the sound track and recipe book and retire.

Bird Reviews Birdhead Catskill Vids

Once again, I'll give you all the BEST of here, so you don't waste time downloading the lame ones (are there any?? prob a few!) :p
These were our 2nd attempt at getting our sh*t together filming. The first ones were the ADK 46, we had a hand-crank vid cam and an atari for video editing, Catskills, we got a little bit better technology and actually started doing some skits towards the end of the 35.. hope you like! My personal fav is SLIDE (our 35th, we got a little wasted on the summit!)

Hey, I'm reporting you guys to Ranger Dick for violating LNT (more than once)! :D
 
OK, I've only had a chance to watch a few of your videos and I'm totally horrified......:(

what kind of example are you setting for our VFTT children? Totally un PC and filled with foul language, sexual innuendos, and alcohol consumption.....:mad:

In one of them I even noticed you had a dog running around in the woods with you unleashed...... :eek:

FOR THE HUMOR CHALLENGED - I'm kidding, OK? Let Rover run free but as for the alcohol consumption..... let's just say I think you guys might need some guides on your next Catskill hike to teach you how to drink responsibly..... :p
 
birdo defense..

Just a note to defend ourselves about the booze. Yeah we might take a few pulls off the bottle... but we have never been really 'bombed' on the trail... We usually exxaggerate drunkenness (Slide Mt, Adams) for a joke.

You can't please everyone, and it was never our intention to dis-respect or set a bad example. To prove that point download>>> MOOSILAUKE NH to see how we feel about littering. ;)

As far as the mutt running loose, I consider it very dangerous to have a dog leashed on steep inclines and declines. I'd rather get barked at then to ruin a trip with a broken leg caused by the dog falling off a cliff with me attached. :D

and last but not least, the foul language. I think I only know two people who don't swear.. But of them are mutes...

TR,
We're working on the 115 (We still have 2 more trips to Maine...saving Katahdin for last:)).
Now for the proof....ummm......well actually....ummmm......we really didn't do wint......ummmm........JUST JIVIN' YA! Here's the pics.(Didn't take any winter video footage (Cept Slide...our 39th) cuz I was being paranoid that my cam would mess up in the cold.(Now I know differently, of course :rolleyes: )
Here's your proof:Blackhead
Balsam
Panther
Slide

Oh man, I'd pay good money to be a fly on the pack for that Katahdin trip.
You guys need a Roadie ? Best Boy ? :eek: (save the jokes for the film...) :cool:
