I did that mountain from the other side, Yankee boy basin, many-many years ago. When I looked down the north face from the top I so wanted to climb the couloir. Never did make it back. Thanks for taking us along on the trip.
whaaaat, this came on auto-play and I was like, "these guys didn't do Sneffels yet"...but saw this was uploaded today!! Awesome - can't wait. I summited Sneffels a few years ago - loved it.
I tried to eat my lunch at work today while watching this. First bite attempt was around the point you climbed into the couloir. A couple minutes later I realized I was still staring at the screen motionless with my fork hovering over my salad like a weirdo. Hope no one saw me...
Ahh so excited you posted a new video! Lolll the name on this one is hilarious - those blue lakes are super special in the summer. Looking forward to more of your videos this summer.
Why didn't you guys use crampons for the patchy snow spots in lower elevation? I would think that would be faster than taking ski's off and on again. Amazing vid though!
Super jealous -- this is a line I've been eyeing for years, but now I'm on the other side of the country. Sneffels is one of my favorite peaks but the low snow in May is kind of crazy, I remember climbing Sneffels by its standard route in July 2019 with continuous snow from the trailhead. Btw, most people rap into the couloir from the summit block -- that downclimb looked pretty spicy.
The return of pucker factor! Also I felt guilty eating my second bowl of fruit loops while listening to Christ of Nutella talk about being out of shape.
I missed your videos! Thanks for posting! At the moment, as I'm not native english speaker, I'm trying to figure out why the name Sneffels is so funny - that's my adventure, LOL!
Excellent work fellas! I wished you had better footage of that summit pitch, a drone perspective would have been special there. It appears that the mountain biking may have benefitted Christoph?
Tried to climb Sneffels last October on a quick road trip passing thru Colorado. Got snowed on, and that shut down all of the roads up to it from Ouray, unfortunately, but I will be back!
Greetings from the UK.....Its only my opinion for what its worth but when you booted up for the snake couloir, would it not have been a better option to get the axes out. If you had taken a tumble there you would not be able to arrest the fall down the couloir with ski poles. I really enjoy your video's if only we had mountains in the UK like you guys....... Keep the Vids rollin'😉
This is too good, we attempted this exact route on May 22, 2021 and couldn't even make it to Blaine basin the conditions were atrocious and we got thunderstormed on (rain at 10,500ft) and the hard freeze we were counting on to try and make any progress never came so we got skunked. We'll try again some other time though!!
I usually give Christof crap about his fitness. Not this time! I know Mount Sneffels well. Great effort and your turns were great not rusty!!! The conditions at the top were dangerous. Definitely, no fall zone!!!
Official Counter: Mediocre Amateur videos since Danny's last puke: 7! Great t see Christof back on a 14er. Maybe I need to start a second counter of the number of different headbands Christof wears in an interview: Number of Christof headbands: 3.
Oh hey! I can see Sneffels from my front porch right meow! Trivia time: Mt. Sneffels was named after the volcano Snæfell in Iceland. That mountain and its glacier, Snæfellsjökull, which caps the crater like a convex lens, were featured in the Jules Verne novel A Journey to the Center of the Earth. An area on the western flank of Mount Sneffels gives the appearance of volcanic crater
My favorite day of the week is whenever Mediocre posts a video
I am with you man
“defenitley a no fall zone” -danny on the edge of a snowy abyss
I felt that. Ones I don't tell the wife about, much less take video of ;-)
@@vashusan1984 WORD.
Great vid
I LOL'd at "Let's get Chris down, and, em, get his mouth wrapped around a burrito." Too fun, as usual!
This better be good - you’ve been keeping me waiting long enough!
Classic Line - always great to see you guys in CO. Great vid as always!
I need a VS/MA collab ASAP!
Been patiently waiting for a new episode and it’s in my neck of the woods!
Most inspirational UA-cam channel ever!
love this channel. And now, I can't stop saying 'Mountin'. thank you, Danny.
It would be cool to see some vids of you guys mountain biking!
Scott Schmidt instructional videos, License to Thrill, epic. Well played!!!
My favorite mountain in all the land. Thanks for doing this guys!
I’m ready for the mountain runs again 🙌🏽
This is the best birthday present! Love this area and I'm totally stoked for this video!
Happy birthday Tom!
Only Christof can pull off those sunglasses!
👊

THAT was SICK! Awesome descent on that steep stuff.....Wow!
That's my daily view! Probably was looking up there as you guys climbed.
Y'all are nuts! Thank you, Gentlemen, for another adventure!!
whaaaat, this came on auto-play and I was like, "these guys didn't do Sneffels yet"...but saw this was uploaded today!! Awesome - can't wait. I summited Sneffels a few years ago - loved it.
The music, the shots, the commentary. This is one of the best ones yet! Very well done
Sneffels helped bring out the best in the both of you
Awesome shots as usual 💯. Especially the drone over the gullie
Thank you for continuing to put out awesome content. 👌
Ayyyy South Slopes route. Gracious- you did that ascent after the saddle with snow in that steep gully. Now I need to do Sneffels again.
Greatest 14er in CO! Glad you guys had a good time
Always excited to see a new Mediocre and it never disappoints !!! "Snaked the Sneffels"....quote of the week !!!!
I'm a simple man, I see a new Mediocre Amateur video, I click.
You guys are f’ing nuts! Great to see a new one posted! Thanks!

Woooooooooooo! Back with Colorado! Let's gooo!
Great seeing some stuff from you again
Seeing a new video from you guys is the best
The Legends are back.
Your vids keep getting better. Glad kristoff is still kicking ass
Great work, hard conditions, excellent drone footage ... well done.
Ahh so excited you posted a new video! Lolll the name on this one is hilarious - those blue lakes are super special in the summer. Looking forward to more of your videos this summer.
I was waiting so long for another video!

Great photography liked the survival skiing - been there!

Christoph seems deliriously “into thin air” at 10:40 trying to make an escape! Lol. Be careful!
So awesome! That mountain is crazy cool. Nice job Snaking Sneffels.
great job fellas!! love this channel. thanks for putting in the work and sharing your adventures!
The return of pucker factor! Also I felt guilty eating my second bowl of fruit loops while listening to Christ of Nutella talk about being out of shape.
Very impressive skiing, and PHENOMENAL video, ESP the drone footage - WAY COOL!
“Skis on skis off skis on”😂😂 that blunt punchin back
Thanks for another episode. Always entertaining!
Best youtubers out there!!!
Love the videos! Watch your stuff all the time!
Really cool place. Planning my first 14er this summer, getting stoked for that 12,500 pain cave. LOL
You guys should do Little Bear-Blanca traverse in the summer!
I second this
I third this. probably the gnarliest traverse in Colorado
i fourth this
Oh yeah baby! Bring it on!
What a great project and perfect footage, boys!
Again, so awesome
Great video! Just discovered this channel! So glad!
Great video fellas
You guys have some big balls!!!! In No Fall Zone.
I missed your videos! Thanks for posting! At the moment, as I'm not native english speaker, I'm trying to figure out why the name Sneffels is so funny - that's my adventure, LOL!
Thank you for another great adventure!
Bad ass... I was so nervous watching you guys ski down!
your camera work is incredible
It’s ok Christof my jump turns on 50 degree slopes are rusty too
Loving the new soundtracks!
this is amaaaaaazing!
the legends are back, enough said
Thank you for being an inspiration for me
you guys are crazy, love it
Top shelf work chaps
Awesome; new video. Love u guys
Great video, guys....! :)
You guys make everything look easy. Even though I’m postive this is incredibly dangerous and difficult.
Cristof's headband selection was definitely ON POINT!
🙌
Excellent work fellas! I wished you had better footage of that summit pitch, a drone perspective would have been special there. It appears that the mountain biking may have benefitted Christoph?
That’s what I’m claiming no matter what Danny says😂
You guys need to do Wetterhorn peak in Colorado. Such an awesome peak
Another awesome video guys. Looking forward to many more this summer!
Always inspiring me for future adventures!
10 miles! You guys were really taking it easy!
love your videos, great work!
Tried to climb Sneffels last October on a quick road trip passing thru Colorado. Got snowed on, and that shut down all of the roads up to it from Ouray, unfortunately, but I will be back!

Keep the Vids rollin'😉
Been waiting for another one. Good stuff!
Y’all made me so nervous of getting cliffed out on that descent when Christof went over that small cornice.
Great video. Thanks guys.
The boys are back
11’ up, 3’ down. Sounds about right for these guys. For people like me, it’s 20’ to 1’. As always, impressive.
Those glasses Christof is wearing are so dope. Also is it Christof or Christoph? Or other? Haha
I’m not sure but I think it’s Christof. Like on The Truman Show.
I do not ski, but love to hike mountains. Are those pieces you peeled off the skis what allow you to go up hill?
MAGNIFICO
Have you guys thought about doing Trapper Peak in Montana via the Gem Lake Couloir?
so sick. curious as to why not scout out the climb with the drone to see when an appropriate time to put on the skis is if you have it?
Well done lads!
This is too good, we attempted this exact route on May 22, 2021 and couldn't even make it to Blaine basin the conditions were atrocious and we got thunderstormed on (rain at 10,500ft) and the hard freeze we were counting on to try and make any progress never came so we got skunked.

Fantastic video, again! I'd love to know you method of research on these treks.
I usually give Christof crap about his fitness. Not this time! I know Mount Sneffels well. Great effort and your turns were great not rusty!!! The conditions at the top were dangerous. Definitely, no fall zone!!!
Is Christof rockin' Smith shades?
Have y’all ever considered summiting kilaminjaro? I’ve heard it’s one of the most beautiful hikes in the world
I met Christof while hiking in Utah!
Rage on boys! Yes! The headband is back!
Do you guys ever use verts for booting up that soft stuff?
Official Counter: Mediocre Amateur videos since Danny's last puke: 7!
Great t see Christof back on a 14er. Maybe I need to start a second counter of the number of different headbands Christof wears in an interview:
Number of Christof headbands: 3.
Oh hey! I can see Sneffels from my front porch right meow!
