Here are a few of the films we just couldn't fit in...

~Great film - different from most of Banff Films about skiing and rock climbing etc.
Very positive audience reaction - we were skeptical that a horse story could hold interest in our urban environment but it was the most frequently cited "favorite" in informal conversations.
- Really good crowd reaction - people got into it and gave it a big applause at the end.
- Excellent film.
4 educated Texas boys set out for an adventure before they have to settle in to their grown up ways... got some yahoo in them. Texas style... sometimes I cringed... sometimes you might too... but stay with 'em. here's the line that sucked me in... I'm hoping it's in the special edit... it's about mustang management...but...
There will be groups on both sides that will never be happy with
anything in the middle. If there's no compromise and we throw up our hands and stop... then that's the worst case scenario...
for horses, wildlife, public lands, and everybody that cares...

I know... I'm just a monkey...peddling along on my evolutionary journey...
but the way I see it... Pesto isn't just basil and pine nuts...
Guiness isn't just beer...and Unbranded... isn't just about getting from
point A to Point B... we're in... you decide. I'm just sayin'.

The Warmth of Winter
Sounds of Paragliding
Krogers Canteen
Redemption~ The James Pearson Story
(2015, USA, 6 min)
Outside, the snow flies and the wind roars. But here, quiet and safe in the candlelight, the warmth and the wood wrap around you like a blanket, and the mind melts into reflections of days gone by. Take shelter from the storm. Sit
down by the fire, have a drink, and take a load off. There is no warmth like a warmth found in winter.

In 2014, Kilian Jornet won the Hardrock 100 mile race through the San Juan’s of Colorado. Along the way he stopped at Kroger’s Canteen – an aid station
perched on a tiny ledge, 13,100ft above sea level. This is a story about that aid station, about the people who make it happen, and about the spirit one can only find at the Hardrock 100.
