Quote - That's the spirit! Mt. Washington? I've just looked up and read "famous for dangerously erratic weather", which DEFINATELY sounds...hmmm... well, for anyone else planning to do extreme things my advice would be this:- buy the tutorial FIRST. That way, if anything should go awry (and I sincerely hope it does NOT) I will at least still get your money. Take care - I assume you'll be taking a digital camera along with you? You should be able to get some smashing backdrops for renders, I'd have thought!
I'm leading a group of Boy Scouts, so I can't take too many risks, (I'm more afraid of their Mothers than the mountains!) although they are experienced, having hiked 50-60 miles over the last month and slept out in survival shelters they built over the winter. There is a road to the top of Washington, so some folks take climbing it too lightly; the weather observatory at the top is literally chained to the living rock for a reason...

That would make for an interesting dynamic cloth simulation :biggrin:
