Kids benefit from outdoor play and adventures in the mountains. That Mountain Life shares outdoor adventure content by a dad who has a passion for spending time outside and learning the art of creating videos. These vlogs follow a family of five throughout their outdoor adventures and daily rhythms of small-town mountain living where outdoor activities are made top priority.

These videos are created with the purpose of entertaining viewers and inspiring others to get kids outside while at the same time exploring some of the values and perspectives the mountains can give both children and parents.

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.” – Roosevelt
