Leftovers for sure, but a crazy huge 4:34 line on FRIDAY? . I hope they paid you to ski down that. On the other hand, it is end of May. It's probably 100 degrees in Phoenix.

A little north of the trail to Ribbon Falls there is a route up the slope that gets you above the falls. Then you follow that stretch back until you’re back at the creek. Beautiful spot!

With go pro it has a built in timelapse mode where you can set everything up pretty easily. The main thing to think about is how long you want it to record for. I usually run it at a rate of taking a photo every 5 seconds. 1 frame every 5 seconds means it takes 150s to get 30 frames. That’s 1 second of timelapse video for every 2 min 30 sec recording timelapse. 10 seconds of video requires 25 mins of recording. 15s needs 37:30 30s needs 75 mins And so on. You also have the flexibility to record at different rates, but just do the math and it’s easy to figure out.

I don’t have first had experience with the side dial. It’s a different style that releases via a T6 tool into a central hole it looks like.

Should come with the special tools you need too. www.boafit.com/en-us/support Good luck!
