Powderwhore Productions presents 'Elevation' a backcountry ski film
It's that time of year again when ski trailers hit the net in anticipation of ski movie season this fall and ultimately ski season itself. With likely only about 10 – 12 weeks to go until we can actually put ski to snow here in the Great White North ski trailers are nice respite from summer.
From Powderwhore Productions comes this years flick entitled 'Elevation – a backcountry ski film'. Right up our alley! Although the trailer is not due out until Sept 3rd we've got some screen caps to share along with the promotional poster.
The Powderwhores call this "part ski porn, part documentary and a full on propaganda piece promoting the joys and wonder of exploring on skis and split-board." Powderwhore Productions is not your typical big budget company and as they say "what we lack in flashy graphics, hi-tech camera gear and helicopter budgets, we make up for with try-hard."
Elevation is a pure backcountry ski flick so we are all eyes. "Capturing wild mountains and those willing to put in the time, education, respect and energy that they demand is our pleasure." Bring it on Powderwhores.
Here's what to expect:
-Holden Village, a peaceful Lutheran Retreat deep in the Cascades, hosts Michele Manning and a wayward band of
skiers who discover its powdery blessings from above
-The Dorais brothers, Jason and Andy, attempt speed skiing records on the Grand Teton and Mount Rainier
-Andrew McLean explores true expedition life in the Ruth Gorge of Alaska
-Returning to health, Noah Howell reveals the depths of his season
-Jake Sakson and Paul Kimbrough clean house in their backyard range, the Tetons of Wyoming
-Will Cardamone and Charlie Cannon hole up for turns in a hut deep in Oregon’s Wallowa Mountains
-Bob Athey offers up crusty bits of wisdom gathered from decades of being bitter in the backcountry
-Cindi-Lou and Zach Grant build the cabin of their dreams in the heart of the Wasatch Mtns
-The Provo brothers, Neil and Ian, reign supreme
Get Ready.
