Time to put those paddles away, get off your bike and break out the snowshoes and skis! Whether or not you adventure outdoors or prefer to enjoy a good book next to the woodstove, this year’s festival will bring a smile to your face. Grab your family, your friends, your neighbors, and anyone who will enjoy nature-inspired time!

 The Backcountry Film Festival highlights the beauty, diversity, and fun of all winter backcountry experiences.

The top submissions are chosen each year and assembled into an evening of short and captivating fun for all viewers, with this year’s films ranging from odysses in the Andes to adventures in the Alaskan Wilderness! For more information about films and tour dates, go to www.backcountryfilmfestival.org.
