To get this shot of Kevin Chirico BASE jumping from the top of Looking Glass Rock in Moab, Utah, photographer Scott Rogers stashed his camera at the bottom of the rocks, made the first jump, and rushed to capture Chirico from inside a nearby sandstone arch. “At just 127 feet, this is one of the lowest BASE jumps in the area, which makes for a very technical and immediate deployment,” says Rogers.“A lot of people climb and rappel here, but I find that a parachute descent is much faster.” | OutsideOnline.com by outsidemagazine

In one of the highest slackline stunts ever, 32-year-old Christian Schou, of Oslo, crossed a 3,000-foot chasm at Kjerag Norway in August 2006. “It’s like being very far from home. You have very little to relate to,” says Schou of the feeling he had midway across the 43-foot-long, one-inch-wide strip of webbing. “It’s just terrible to look down.” #tbt Photo: Fredrik Schenholm | OutsideOnline.com by outsidemagazine

“It was nasty the whole time, and the fishing was completely miserable,” said photographer Andy Anderson, who spent five days shooting with a vintage camera in the pouring rain near Forks, WA. “On the bright side, the conditions made for great lighting.” April 2014, Exposure | OutsideOnline.com by outsidemagazine

“I was 200 meters out and this dark mass just appeared in front of me,” says photographer David Sheridan, who was kitesurfing off Valla Beach, on Australia’s east coast. “Next thing, I get this almighty whack in the back of my head.” Luckily, the native Aussie’s kite pulled him away just as the tail of this southern right whale struck him. How did he get the shot? He’d attached a camera to his kite and programmed it to shoot at ten-second intervals. #tbt March, 2009 Exposure | OutsideOnline.com by outsidemagazine

Here, a man uses his skis as an anchor while battling an elk in the traditional Altai way, which has been practiced for thousands of years. This animal was later let loose by the skiers.
