Awesome timelapse video from the California mountains

It includes the Sierra, the Whites, and Joshua Tree.

Some of the clips look fake, but he has other videos showing his setup and how he did it, so they're all real, amazingly.

Agreed, there was some real eye candy in that one. But I must admit, personally getting out there and hiking in the sunset and then in the dark is always more beautiful. If you don't know what I mean than get out there and try it..............................you might like it.

For some other examples of cool time-lapse, it's worth checking out the movie Baraka from 1992.

I have often done large portions of Grand Canyon hikes at night. It's the best alone, during summer, when there is no Moon, and the Milky Way is vivid, without light pollution. People have asked me why I would want to hike it at night. I tried to explain, but I'm not sure if they got it.

I had a similar experience in the Wind Rivers last summer trying to do Gannett in a day. Started about 10 PM and hiked through the night (and day, but this isn't about that), mostly by headlamp, but when it was time to rest we flipped off the headlamps and enjoyed the moonless sky, void of light pollution. I remember a particular rest at Island Lake when we started wondering what we were doing. I thought it might be a good idea to just disappear into the night sky rather than keep walking.
