Calling all “go big or go home” winter enthusiasts! Get ready to get goosebumps while you “Ooh!” and “Ahh!” at the impact and importance of our winter wildlands through this collection of short films. The fourteenth annual Winter Wildlands Alliance Backcountry Film Festival will show in Crested Butte on Saturday, December 15th at Center for the Arts. All proceeds will benefit High Country Conservation Advocates
HCCA is a grassroots organization that collaborates with local stakeholders and policymakers, applies sound science, and upholds the environmental laws affecting our community. We recognize that environmental sustainability is the key to a healthy economy.
Produced each year as a celebratory, backcountry community event by the Winter Wildlands Alliance, the 14th Annual Backcountry Film Festival film line-up is full of snowy, cinematic adventure sure to inspire both the local backcountry and general communities. Winter Wildlands Alliance is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting and preserving winter wildlands and a quality human-powered snow sports experience on public lands.
By partnering with groups like High Country Conservation Advocates at a local level, the Winter Wildlands Alliance raises funds for these groups and communities through the annual Backcountry Film Festival national tour. All funds raised directly benefit local projects and programs that perpetuate access and stewardship of public lands.
Adventure, environment and climate, youth outdoors, ski culture- you’ll find it all in this award-winning lineup. Films in this year’s program include:
- Ode to Muir (Festival cut), Teton Gravity Research
