That was absolutely incredible, loved seeing the line come together and the story really kept you hooked good on the director and editor! Amazing riding as expected! Really enjoyed!
Never gets old, watching Vanderham do his thing on two wheels! Truly an artist both on and off the bike. One of the top three riders I think would be real cool to ride with. Great overall trail vision/design, fantastic views, and film work. Hadn't heard of the female rider until this clip, but holding your own with Vanderham - my hat's off to ya!!
Beautifully done and no doubt it's a great trail but not sure how many of the "lot of people for a long, long time" will get to ride a trail that requires a heli shuttle.
@BlueDevilBrew Great question! As a rule of thumb, you should always have permission from the proper land owner before building any new trails. This project was done on the Retallack Lodge land tenure with all the appropriate approvals before any building was done. Environmental damage is always considered, and the basin this trail was built in has a long history with mining. If you look closely in the film you can see the remnants of old mine shafts, access roads, and piles of track, shelters and debris left from times past.
Freehub Magazine thanks for the info. I had no doubt approvals were given prior to construction. Mostly just noticing a difference in land management between BC and US. Pretty much all the alpine areas in the US are federal lands where this isn’t allowed. Fun project, thanks to sharing.
@@theGiver3 it's crown land (means the government owns it essentially) that Retallack has tenure to operate certain activities (cat skiing and mountain biking on). The operating/lease agreement lays out terms of what they can do. As Freehub said above, there's a ton of mining history in these valleys so it is not pristine wilderness by any means (but that doesn't mean it shouldn't be respected, which it clearly is).
Veronique Sandler is fearless...so fun to watch!
Awesome video ! We need more like this more on a full length documentary type!
This beauty is breathtaking! 😳
Mountain bikes and Knob Creek whiskey! It's a love affair!
I feel like I should've paid for this content...
Always look forward to the latest releases from Freehub! Keep the content coming!
Sublime! This is the kinda stuff that reminds me how much I love the Mountains and Mountain Biking, against all setbacks, hardships , injuries.
Agree, such a life changing hobbie

My thoughts exactly . I built a trail by walking up every time. Lol
yeah just imagine a world where everyone did this, it would be....completely unsustainable. woooooo 🤘

Vanderham is the Ben Affleck of biking
Is BC just cool with random alpine trail building? Environmental damage isn’t a concern? This would never fly in the US.

Assuming the lodge owns the land, how is it any different from private land in the US?

@@hobmarg thanks for the explanation. I didn't know. I agree, even just watching this video you can feel the respect for the land. Incredible.
Is there a climbing trail? Or do we just call the Chopper?
9:52
would of been better and much less effort to keep the trail as raw as possible, im sure there's a lot of natural lips to hit in the way down .
Great video guys! Top job.
