When having fun goes wrong, continue to have fun. Doug here, owner of StormChasingVideo.com and over the weekend I did the Alpine Slide at Lutsen, MN. The slide was pretty much the best part of Lutsen since once again I got another shitty hotel room. This time it was at Caribou Highlands where the room was not only dirty but this time there was blood stains on the sheets from the last guest.

Anyway, back to the video. There are two runs down the slide in this video. The first run is where I crash after seeing a Ground Hog, yes a Ground Hog next to the track that I was told lives in a hole under the track.

The second part of the video is one of the successful runs down the slide.

The Alpine Slide is pretty fun. I crashed because the Ground Hog made me look over and say WTF and I hit a curve and was not ready. Lucky for me I was wearing jeans and a sweat shirt to I did not get too bad of road rash.
