On the 21st of December 2006, Backcountry photographer/filmmaker Dave Genchi's life changed in an instant. While working in the Routt National Forest in Northwestern Colorado, a freak accident occurred and Dave broke his neck. He suffered a severe spinal cord injury at the C5/C6 level. Dave and his fellow guide friends created BackcountryCam.com in the spirit of increasing safety and awaremess in your Backcountry. Through BackcountryCam.com, realtime video and information on snow fall, weather, and safety conditions are now available on your hand held device.
