The woman in this video looks like she is completely at home outside in
the winter snow. Three-time bronze medalist and Olympic alternate
Elizabeth Putnam may have spent much of her life practicing and
competing on the world’s best rinks, but she’s most comfortable skating
on a frozen lake in the middle of the wilderness.

The stark, stunning beauty of the mountains of British Columbia is the
perfect backdrop for her exceptional skating talent. The ice of the
frozen lake is not perfectly groomed, and the outdoor temperature is not
carefully maintained, but Elizabeth skates as if she is competing for a
gold medal — perhaps even better. Without the pressure of competition,
she can embrace the grace and emotion that accompanies her skating.

This particular frozen lake is at an elevation of 2,500 feet and can
only be reached by helicopter. Pilot Bradley Friesen not only delivers
her, but it is from his helicopter that this uniquely stunning video is
captured.

Enjoy! :-)

Why has nobody watched this?

The skater is fantastically good and the music and filming outstanding!

I have but couldn't think of much to say about it, and don;t think much is needed to say about it.
Would have been more impressive with a drone as that would mean anyone could have filmed it but as I don't have access to a helicopter, can't skate and dopn;t have access to a frozen lake althougbh it was 16C in the lab on friday.....
and with the the winter olympics on while she skated well she didn;t do anyhting really impressive like a triple back flip while drinking a pint of beer ;-)

I appreciate you letting me know, 'Whisky-dave'.

Perhaps other folk too DID watch but refrained from comment.

I enjoy your sense of humour! ;-)
