Three Sisters Wilderness // Skiing the North and Middle Sister

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 มิ.ย. 2021
- Thanks to all the people we met on the trail for stopping and saying hello. You help keep the stoke alive. In this episode we set out to summit the North Sister in the Three Sisters Wilderness. A day or two earlier a small storm with strong winds had plastered the rock faces on the west slope with thick rime ice. As we rounded the corner onto the west face the mountain seemed to fall apart as chunks of ice constantly broke off and tumbled by. So the Amateurs regrouped and discussed their situation. Should we summit or should we go over and ski the very appealing Middle Sister? Also, didn't even notice matts joker sunscreen look until I got home and looked at the footage.
"I've found that the best way to ensure you don't need a piece of gear is to bring that piece of gear"
-Truer words have never been said.
and vice versa...
100%. i bought an expensive snowblower just to be sure it wont snow this winter. and so far it worked out great. ^^
best channel on YT right here
100%
How is it that this channel only has 55K subscribers?
@@davidstepro7486 I'm not sure why TH-cam doesn't recommend the channel more, it's an atrocity
Danny can shoot and edit like a MF'er! Totally agree, MA is best on YT!
@@davidstepro7486 TH-cam definitely has something against Mediocre Amateur(s), because new uploads never show in my recommendations :( Pity, this is one of the best outdoor channels, they deserve million subs!
"The best way to ensure that you don't need a piece of gear, is to bring that piece of gear." GOODNESS, nothing truer has ever been said!
"We threw this together at the last minute" a.k.a. standard practice for these adventures.
And yet they had a better turn out than Christof's birthday ride!
Good on you guys for turning back from the initial objective! I think the true metric of success in the mountains should always be good decisions made and not peaks summited. Knowing when to step back is a true mark of a good mountaineer.
We need more of these turn-backs captured on outdoor adventure content. For so long the skiing video scene was saturated with people sending the gnar, racing avalanches, and jumping off cliffs. While those are very fun to look at, it's refreshing to see the full spectrum of mountain adventures be shown like it is here. The good, the sketchy, and the awesome.
damnnn matt doing whip-its on the sisters this man is a maniac
Ha! Three people had a total of 10 hours to let me know and not a word;)
Underrated comment. I'm rolling
i know that sounds stupid but your videos helped me through a difficult time. thank you! I wish you all the best.
Always get so pumped when I see a MA notification.
One of my favorite channels on YT- you guys just keep crushing the edits. So underrated.
It is always a good day when a new MA is uploaded. Thanks, Danny
Great video as always. Thanks for all your hard work Danny!! You are a very talented videographer, editor and story teller!
It's amazing that I can see Three sisters from my house in Eugene.
Well Sarah Palin can see Russia from hers…
“Only way to ensure that you dont need that peice of gear is to bring that peice of gear”….. So true 🤣😂🤣😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Epic day, fellas...especially in that heat! Thanks for sharing!
I love the shot of the niblets of corn coming down off someone skinning up, ya bunch of corn farmers.
FINALLY IVE BEEN WAITING FOR A VIDEO hehehe
Stay amateur boys. We love the love content just the way it is. Well done as usual.
You guys never disappoint to inspire and entertain. Thanks for never taking yourselves too seriously.
Great timing on this video. I have a trip planned at the end of July to hike all three sisters over a three day weekend. Good tidbits of beta in here.
Love the channel! Keep getting after it!
These volcano adventures never fail to impress. Some of the views in this video like the shaded icy cliffs with you guys skiing past them really makes me want to get up there this weekend. What an awesome video.
Love your guys tenacity.!!
You are all very fortunate to have each other as friends. I think you know that. This is rare to see men in this culture bond as you all do. Cheers!
These absolutely make my day every time I watch a new one. I'm shocked you guys don't have three times the amount of subscribers. I guess you remain a bit of a hidden gem on YT.
Love the channel and watching what you guys do! I honestly dont have much experience summer skiing, but am conservative so when I hear late start, south facing slope, boiling hot, and visible ice balling, I think of perfect potential wet avalanche conditions. Glad it worked out and you had an awesome day!
Not sure if you're a Rocky Mountainer because I recently heard that's an issue out there, but summer skiing is pretty standard out in the West. (The West Coast I guess I should say). All about that corn snow. I'm guessing it's because our snowpack is just much more dense. Sierra Cement and Cascade Concrete pay off once late Spring and Summer roll around!
Just another top video from amateurs, great job!
Nothing like a good corn shred!
Your videos are amazing at so many levels... Effort... Attitude... Physical Fitness... all pretty high levels or roll modeling going on.. So ya I have to be part of Team Mediocre which is why I just ordered some cool murch!!
Stellar, that looks so amazing. Great vid as always, thanks for sharing!
I for one would never second guess the decisions made by others in the moment. I am not there. You are. Good on you for knowing you're gonna get grief and saying the heck with it and doing the right thing in the moment. The mountaineers decision is to retreat and return another day. Thanks for posting!
My. Favorite. Channel. Of. All. Time.
stunning views great job lads!
(*Update* there are now two dislikes, Christof got his wife to login and dislike also) Christof making his presence known by being the only person to dislike this video.. Has to be him lol
Who’s Christof?
@@alexandermartinez129 watch more Mediocre Amateur and you'll find out 😁 I met him once at a ski resort
Such great videos, always enjoy them!
my favorite channel on YT. Thanks Danny and all those keeping this thing going.
every video is a banger!
Always inspiring especially in the middle of summer with winter 6 months away for most of us!
Fantastic! Turns that are so completely enjoyable makes it possible to see the personal variance in skiing. Maybe it's time to see twelve great runs in four minute sequence. 48 minutes of bliss.
Another awesome video. That peak you could see, far to the south, was probably Mount McLoughlin (9,493), not Lassen.
Yeah, or maybe shasta.
@@zacharyhoffman142 it was McLoughlin. Shasta is a little too far away to be seen, even from South Sister (which is higher and a little closer)
I went up Bailey several years ago and was pretty sure that was looking at Shasta to the south (and McLoughlin). Does it seem reasonable that you could see Shasta from there?
Low light and fast corn, yeh baby
Awesome video and climbing and skiing......thanks for sharing
I was thinking, Dang I wonder if anyone ever gets hurt and then BAM your playing it safe. Serious respect. Love your adventures. Living vicariously through you since I cannot do 99% of what you guys do 😍
JEZZ these guys must be fit as hellllll. Envious
Tried climbing north sister a couple summers ago. No snow on the mountain and it was very sketchy. Got to the traverse and turned around, Definitely the right decision on the guys part. Skree is everywhere! I almost pulled a Boulder out on me, saw my life flash before my eyes. Good video!
This is probably my favorite video you guys have done!
Wow. Such and incredible video and what looks like the perfect day on the Sisters. Be there next week. One of these days I'll hopefully fun into you guys on the trail!
Amazing! 💯
Awesome video guys! Keep it up!
Awesome work! Days when your plan goes to shit, and you can enjoy the mountain for what it is and not what you wanted it to be, are the best. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Haha. Pole Creek Trailhead. My stomping grounds. Great job, guys.
What a day and visibility, awesome scenery and shots, especially that group skiing at the end! Deni sure knows how to pick the great weather day :) Best crew on TH-cam, just missing Christoph here!
As a less experienced 'mediocre amateur', I often feel the urge to just 'push through' even when my gut is saying 'no'. Really helpful to see when you all asses and make the decision to re-direct/change plans, even if that means not summiting. . love your content; keep on bootn'
This channel is such a gem and an inspiration to go crush summits.
Woo! It's up! Fun running in to you guys out there!
The volcanoes you can see to the north of the Sisters are Jefferson, Hood, and then Adams. St Helens and Rainier aren't far beyond that but they're obscured by some of the other hills. Lassen would be to the south, beyond McLoughlin and Shasta.
Discovered the channel recently and like many others have said the episodes are produced to a very high standard but one thing I never see mentioned is the music. Top quality! You could hear some of these tunes while not seeing the video and immediately know it is Mediocre Amateurs😊
New MA videos always make my day!
favorite channel, keep it up
Felt like a fitting send off to the season!
Love these videos!
Geekness to the extreme. Well done
Anytime yall upload I'll be watching
Nice job. The skiing looked great.
Danny is bringing the flow back
Welcome back to beautiful Oregon! Y'all always seem to luck out on the weather haha 🤣
Nice trip lads, Danny, nice production. Skiing in the 3 sisters area is fun, cheers from Orygun.
This is the only channel I have notifications on for! Love it!
Rad video! Stay amateur! Love you guys!
been binging your content, happy to see a new upload great work fellas:)
Thanks for the stoke guys! Keep it up!
Obsessed with this channel
Great stuff!
I assume Matt facilitated the last minute travel plans.
Ha! You already know me too well Brian. It’s just a hop and a skip to AK. Should be there mid July.
Another great MA adventure - The testimonies win out - PNW Backcountry Skiing is the way to go! Guess I'm not moving to Utah after all! Woot!
Amazing day!!🎿⛷
No suncups + buttery corn = another Fantastic video. Party on.
agree with everyone else, definitely a smart move to turn around before the summit. this just means that next year you guys need to link all 3 summits!!
More people need to like and subscribe
YES!! A new video.
I fricken love this channel
The more beards on this channel, the better the adventures. Haha 😂
Rad day! Those PNW volcanoes look incredible
I had to go buy a Gatorade after watching this
Nice Vid Thank you.
I am exhausted watching this as I eat my Saturday morning waffle in 90 degree temps..but rad adventure guys!
EPIC.
That cornsnow amazing
Good call guys. I’ve yet to climb Northie because of these kinds of conditions. There’s a reason they call it the bowling alley: you can easily become the pins
Really nice photography on this day Danny, money shot at 11:48, pretty classic
Nothing like waking up to a mediocre amateur video and a cup of coffee.
Let’s go!!!!!!!!! Safe travels ya hooligans!
New release! Yay!
Love seeing so many amateurs for this one. Wish Christof made an appearance.
I haven't seen it yet because I have to go, but I liked it cause I know it's gonna be good
Very well done. Although Christof is my fave.
This has been sitting in my suggested for days, looked amateur, not MEDIOCRE AMATEUR! Sweet.
Wish you'd show you guys eating pizza at the end of the day. Complete the journey. Loved this.
Kool Dudes!!
Awesome
Who's moving to Bend, OR now!? :)
When did you record this?? Love it!! Welcome to the best state 🎊
