"Americans have overwhelmingly spoken out against the Trump Administration’s unprecedented attempt to shut down our national monuments. The Administration’s unlawful actions betray our shared responsibility to protect iconic places for future generations and represent the largest elimination of protected land in American history. We’ve fought to protect these places since we were founded and now we’ll continue that fight in the courts."

— Rose Marcario, President and CEO, Patagonia

Jumbo Wild: The Movement (Preview Featurette)
https://youtu.be/0XNBqe446uY
In this preview to the upcoming feature film, we travel deep into the Purcell Mountains of British Columbia where the land is wild and backcountry skiing is a way of life. For the Ktunaxa Nation, it is an area known as Qat’muk, the sacred home of the grizzly bear spirit. Conservation group Wildsight echoes its importance as part of a critical wildlife corridor, one of only two remaining areas in North America where grizzly bears can freely roam between Canada and the United States. For decades, First Nations, conservationists and backcountry skiers have fought the proposed Jumbo Glacier Resort. What more will it take to keep Jumbo wild for good?

Eric flying his paraglider pre cold front over Boulder. The east wind provided lift on the foot hills and the cold air pushed up the warmer air, which also provided lift. I was able to fly an hour before the snow diminished the visibility. Maybe I should head back to our Mountains for deep fresh powder. So much fun, so little time.
