    You do such AMAZING work on your videos! You are able to bring up feelings of the beauty of all the wild places that are still here for us to revel in. Thank you for reminding me that life is not measured by what we have but but by what we experience!

    Dear Christian,
    I want to thank you for these amazing, beautiful and insanely inspiring videos. They have the incredible yet somewhat uncanny ability to make me feel joyous, sad, calm and excited all at the same time! More importantly, they have helped me to reconnect to a part of myself I lost sight of somewhere along the path to adulthood. Thank you!
    Sincerely, Johannes

    Cloud formation from forested mountains is just the most magical natural phenomenon there is. Formless to ephemeral form. Gone with the touch of sunshine.

    Christian, I found your channel by happenstance, or algorithm, I suppose. I have watched several of your videos. I just wanted to take a minute to tell you how much I have enjoyed them. Your meanderings to all points west bring me fond memories of my father, who lived his dream of an occupation in professional photography. He worked for a large international chemical company, and was able to travel the world, and especially to photograph nature, his first love. He loved the mountain west, and especially Yosemite. He was also a student of Ansel Adams. His were the days of film photography and black and white, and he was so excited about the possbilities of digital, and video.
    You are very talented, and he would have loved to view the world through your eyes, as you have shared with the world here. I wish I could show him your channel. This video of Yosemite, especially, he would have likely been moved to tears, as I was.
    You bring a breath of fresh air to a media landscape full of people doing things to call attention to themselves, in quite tacky ways. While your videos are about you and your life, you bring a sense of truth and honesty to your work that is quite authentic, and not about you, but through you. It would be easy to spot if you were faking that.
    My dad died in 2005, but I see him in your images, and your perspective. You are a lovely young woman with a beautiful spirit; I thank you for your work, and wish you much success and happiness in your future.
    And above all stay safe! (Retired cop) I am glad to hear that you've thought through the dangers, and seem to be prepared for that.
    Blue skies, (and storms when desired, ) and open roads, from your newest fan (and fellow introvert), Tom. ❤

    Thank you for adding the link to support our outdoor public lands. Letters have been customized and sent along with a contribution. My father worked for the California State Park System for over 40 years. As kids we grew up in State Park Housing in Big Trees State Park and Big Basin State Park. I understand the importance of maintaining these state and federal lands so that our children and grand children can enjoy them. Big Basin is a prime example. The house i grew up in and the park i rode my bike in is now gone and destroyed by fire. Thank goodness I had the chance to take my son backpacking there the year before the fire. But so many young people have no idea of the beauty that's out there. We have to maintain the ability to film and explore so that more people can grow to appreciate our public lands.

    As always, I am deeply touched by your ability to capture the atmosphere of the landscapes.

    Thank you so much for that. Love from Bali.

    Regarding the fuse on the Rad Battery: I found that sometimes they get blown if you plug the charger into the power supply before plugging the cord into the battery. So, the solution is to plug the cord into the battery first, then plug charger into the power supply. I found a particularly small set of needle nose pliers from Home Depot will pull the fuse easily. Finally - the cinematography in your videos is THE BEST!

The comment from Spencer Chow was spot-on, as well. I am so grateful for the work you do and for your wonderful "finished minutes." Thank you for the beautiful, ethereal music that accompanies your productions, as well!
    All in all, your work is exquisite! I'm so happy for you! God bless you on your journeys, Christian. Stay safe and happy, warm and cozy. 😊❤~Russ

I recently had a pretty catastrophic diagnosis for my knee and it looks like I won’t be walking or doing any mountain biking anytime soon. Watching your videos, keeps me inspired and drives me for forward on my path to healing. Make sure you get a box of various fuses when you’re in town.💜
