Enjoy the sights and sounds of sliding down a 12,800 foot mountain

The Sound Traveler is an alternate channel by the creator of Smarter Every Day. It focuses on memorable auditory experiences, like sliding down snowy Mount Adams, a large stratovolcano due east of Mount St. Helens in Washgington State.

Says Destin:

We've been capturing our travels in 3D audio using binaural microphones. Our heads are big frequency filters and they cause a time delay and frequency change to incoming sounds. Binaural microphones take into account that you have a head and the recordings give the perception of genuine 360° sound. So, put your headphones on and take a look and listen to the hikes and adventures we're accruing from around the world.

Here's how the series started, at Machu Picchu:
