Videos of the Week #12 2019/20 | Best of Alpine Clubs on YT

As multifaceted as the mountains themselves

by Sebastian Müller • 02/07/2020

What we don't have to thank our alpine clubs for: huts with mountaineers' meals and tea, dormitories with scratchy woollen blankets, winter rooms and bivouacs! Magazines, equipment hire and courses! Environmental protection and policy! Anything else? Sure: the Alpine clubs of all Alpine countries have long been represented on youtube and deliver: Educational material, small adventures and big expeditions, as well as top-level Olympic sport. So let's take a look - in order from small to big!

Planinska Zveza Slovenije (PZS, 76 subs)

Unlike in sport climbing, the Slovenians are still in their infancy on youtube. This mountain stream gondola(?) stands out!

Fédération Française des clubs alpins et de montagne (FFCAM, 97 subs)

Even here, the reach and appeal are still limited, but the French ski mountaineers are already delivering the finest adventures:

Swiss Alpine Club (SAC, 172 subs)

Not much going on in Switzerland either. They let the youngsters do it!

Club Alpino Italiano (CAI, 1.49K subs)

Presents itself at the beginning like its logo: slightly antiquated, with lots of old white men talking and mainly "sentiero italiano". But if you scroll deeper, you discover old films with great humor and drama, and nice history lessons:

Austrian Alpine Association (ÖAV, 2.13K subs)

In Austria, they are usually professional and safety-conscious. Actually very well done and really valuable:

Deutscher Alpenverein (DAV, 7.16K subs)

Slightly unmanageable: image cultivation, lots of competition climbing (now also Olympic!) and also ski touring races, a bit of safety and hut portraits, and lo and behold, a ski tour with snowstormer Lukas:

Today in our Videos of the Week: The imaginary battle between EAST & WEST: Relatively interesting films from Japan and Georgia fight for your favor with two films from the USA. Have fun!
Videos of the Week #10 2019/20 | Let the show begin!

Sebastian Müller • 01/24/2020

Please note: your esteemed editor was suffering from severe flu, only had enough strength to watch the pseudo-live broadcast of the Freeride World Tour in Hakuba, and then stayed alive after all. He then became aware of Elias Elhardt's film and connections began to emerge everywhere, between mountains and across valleys. A few flics from young and old for fun, and if that's not enough entertainment for you, why not watch Greta vs. Trump in Davos 2020...
Videos of the Week #9 2019/20 | Teachers leave them kids alone

Sebastian Müller • 01/17/2020

Children and young people are still heavily underrepresented in the Videos of the Week. We would like to counteract this. This is an episode with overly cute children and their overly proud fathers, and with incomprehensibly good young skiers.
