Columbia Icefield Gigapixel Project (CIGP) Update
Saturday, February 2nd, 2013
Had a great meeting with GigaPan‘s Marketing team the other day. It’s going to be great having their help with additional research and CIGP marketing. Still working on financial funding and climbing safety gear specific to the project.
I’m going to play with the GigaPan Epic Pro at the end of The Portland Rock Gym’s 25th Anniversary Bash tonight.
I’m excited that Promote Systems is interested in the Project, can’t wait to use the Promote Control for some focus stacking!
A huge thank you again to Mountain House for having the desire early on and being the first official project sponsor, along with Borrowlenses.com.
Last but not least….
A fresh pair of Intuition Luxury Liners!
I’ll be getting these fit at the Mountain Shop in Portland soon! I am excited to ride in comfort from this day forward.
Thank you all for your support!
Image Acquisition locations
The Route of the Columbia River.
The Columbia Icefield rests near the Big Bend above Kinbasket Lake and is one of two hydrological apexes (feeds into three water systems: Arctic, Pacific and Atlantic via Hudson Bay) ice sheets in the world. The second one is in Siberia. Since it is an apex and is already being currently studied by a scientific team led by Dr. Mike Demuth this area is a prime candidate for gigapixel image acquisition.
I will be conducting gigapixel test shoots on Mount Hood soon.

I have just added a link to my new Gigapan page in order for you to properly view my current panoramic images and the ones I’ll be acquiring as the Columbia Icefield Gigapixel Project gets underway this Spring. The link to this page can be found on the right as well as in this post.

Athabasca Glacier, one exit glacier of the Columbia Icefield.
I recently heard about Promote through one of my photog buddies, Gavin, at a recent CIGP meeting with Gigapan’s Mike Franz. Gavin mentioned it stacks multiple focal planes of an image into one image and that Promote Control would be an excellent tool for making super crisp Gigapixel Panoramic Photographs.

Thank you.
I appreciate everyone’s willingness to support the Columbia Icefield Gigapixel Project, and my wife for putting up with my obsession with this Project.
