11 years of Winter Celebration
Grab your outdoor bucket list and adventure buddies to tune into a night of human-powered winter celebration at the 11th annual Backcountry Film Festival. Produced by the Boise-based nonprofit, Winter Wildlands Alliance, the tour shows at Brewvies on January 7th; doors open at 6:30 pm, films start at 7:00 pm.
The Backcountry Film Festival is renowned for its collaboration with filmmakers from all corners of the globe, ranging grassroots to professional. Chances are that you will bump into some of these talented folks during OR. The festival provides a fresh line(up) committed to get everyone, van dwellers to weekend warriors, awakened to the powder turns as well as environmental initiatives happening all around the world.
Created in 2004 to highlight Winter Wildlands Alliance's efforts to preserve and promote winter landscapes for human-powered users, the festival begins in Boise and includes showings in locations throughout the United States and Canada and now in Antarctica, Europe, Australia and Asia. Funds raised stay in local communities to support like-minded, human-powered recreation and conservation efforts and to raise awareness of winter management issues, avalanche training/safety and winter education programs.
