Flash-Flood-Fun at Sullivan Canyon...RIVER!

Wow! Wet & Wild MUni today at Sullivan Canyon...or I should say, RIVER!

Flash flooding with fast moving streams that were/are carving out a completely NEW trail...by the minute! What it looked like when I started was quite different when I returned. BUT WHAT CRAZY FUN!!! This time I thought I'd let the canyon supply the "music", so it's in Natural surround sound!

Hope you enjoy watching as much as I enjoyed riding/swimming it! Comments appreciated.

That was a good one. You really need to find a friend that can run camera for you. Some of those runs would have been good to see in a panning shot as you go by. You have your flying camera now you need to design a remote control pan mechanism for the top of a tripod so you can pan it as you ride by. Designing and operating a remote control panning mechanism would probably be easier than finding friends or even a friend to go out and act crazy.

I do have to admit I was waiting for you to wipe out in the water and end up completely soaked. So why did you edit it out?

You have to go up in order to come down. Why is the up part always so steep?

I was planning on setting up my UCC, but wanted to give it a trial run first. I may go back in the next few days to get some awesome shots with my UCC. Basically, I would have the camera would zip across the stream, along side, way up high looking down, etc.
