I've also realized that iMovie is the easiest way to deal with editing gopro footage, so from now on I probably will editm rather than time compress rides in order to get clips under the youtube 10 minute ceiling. We rode by the co-headquarters of Rossignol skis, as well as a ski lift manufacturer which had a few test setups installed (funny to see ski lifts on the flatlands!).

not sure if the route is 100% correct:
