This morning I tuned into the entire 7:00am hour of the Today Show. The promised feature on the Heber Creeper got bumped. I wonder if it will be rescheduled. Does anybody else know?

Don't feel bad Kevin, I invested 3 hours and saw nothing also. Nice avalanche and jewelry segments though if you are into those things!

PS.
I guess I could pull up some video I shot in 1999 of the 618 and enjoy that instead!

Very rarely do I watch any TV "directly", for three reasons: 1) I can't stand most of the commercials, 2) I want to watch when it's convenient for me, and not necessarily when certain programs are scheduled, and 3) the problem cited here is common, i.e. networks make last minute changes from what they say they're going to run. So I let my VCR do the "watching" and then I fast-forward the tape as appropriate to quickly find what I want to see - IF it's there. Would suggest this procedure to others, ESPECIALLY when a three-hour program is involved!

My brother called later and asked me if it was on, and I said no. He said he went back to bed but recorded it on tape. Now why didn't I think of that being in the video business! Anyway I told him he could tape over it!
