BACKCOUNTRY FILM FESTIVAL
Celebrating the Winter Human-Powered Experience
The 13th Annual Winter Wildlands Alliance Backcountry Film Festival will show at the Chief Theater on February 17, 2018. All proceeds benefit Yampatika and Friends of the Routt Backcountry.
The Backcountry Film Festival is produced by Winter Wildlands Alliance as a celebration of the human-powered experience and a gathering place for the backcountry snowsports community. Winter Wildlands Alliance is a national nonprofit organization that partners with groups like Yampatika and Friends of the Routt Backcountry at the local level to inspire and educate the backcountry community to protect and care for their winter landscapes.
Funds raised at each screening stay in the local community to support human-powered recreation and conservation efforts, winter education and avalanche/safety programs and to raise awareness of winter management issues.
