  • Downhill skiing in waist deep powder.

  • A fictional bicycle race.
  • The playful antics of a cat named Samantha.

History
Tim Bayer's Adventure Bound started simply enough with shooting video footage while on a 1992 ski trip in Colorado. Upon returning from the trip, the video was edited to include background music and narration.

In following years, I would take a video camera with me whenever I struck off on an adventure. Once a year I would compile the best footage from my excursions into a 1 hour collection, add some narration and background music and give copies to my family and friends. From that simple beginning, it has developed into a series of half hour shows that air on various community access stations.
