This won the red bull hike and ride film comp' last year and is shot round Grimentz and Zinal. It also nicely catches the "main road" up the valley :D

Oh, excellent, thanks :D The link I had for this was no longer working. I searched the web only a couple of weeks ago and failed to find this movie.
I have watched it again, and it's still inspiring stuff.

I hope you all realise youtube compresses the aspect ratio of videos widthewise so the steepness is more than it really is. I've been looking for the non-compressed version of this on the 'net without much luck. It's impressive stuff but remember the youtube compression.
Case in point is look at the guy talking at 16-19 seconds into the film, his head and neck look stretched and very thin, the compression makes the slope look much steeper, not that it isn't steep.

Here is a better quality clip of that run. Shrunk a little and in a better AR.

Thank-you 82ross. That was exactly what I was looking for, keeping it 'real' Terje wouldn't have it any other way!!!
