Our favorite web videos of the week that was:
1. Big Jim Whittaker and A Life Well Lived
American climbing legend Jim Whittaker – first ‘merican to summit Everest (but you already knew that), and his life, well-lived.

2. Fishin’ Ain’t Easy…Unless it is
Here is a nice little fly fishing video from a fly fishing school session from the Orvis store in Woodbridge, Va. Some nice fishing action and good pacing in this one.
3. On the Road
This trail for a short feature from Fitz Cahill has been making the rounds and getting attention from all over the web. The film was self shot by high-alpine climber Kyle Dempster on a solo, mountain bike driven climbing trip to the remote and unclimbed peaks of Kyrgyzstan.
4. Moose Vs. Truck
A truck hits a moose in Ontario, fireworks ensue….literally.
5. I Know It’s Summer, But…
Here is a trailer for the Appalachian Project. Not sure what it’s all about, but if Bruce Persinger is involved, it must be good.
