A backcountry ski guide and a field biologist as set out to document and protect an elusive population of wolverines in Washington State's remote Methow Valley.

Three of Colorado's shreddiest ladies show us what they're made of in this short film, presented by jorts. Avra Saslow, Delilah Cupp, and Clare Hamilton are best friends, roommates, and riding partners who make the most of every berm.

In 1973, being a black skier was a lonely endeavor, one that came with racism and alienation. That year, the National Brotherhood of Skiers formed as a way to bring black skiers together to ski, celebrate and build community. With its annual summits and thriving youth organizations, the NBS has grown into a well-loved ski establishment. Along with torching the myth that black people don’t ski, the NBS continues to engender the next generation of black skiers. “It’s a beautiful sport,” one young participant says. “And I wish it was more accessible to everyone. I guess that’s where our ski club comes in.”

In 2016, Aaron Rice sets out to ski 2.5 million, human-powered, vertical feet in the backcountry and set a new world record. To be successful he must ski over 330 days in the calendar year and chase snow around the world. The challenge is both physical and mental, and injuries are simply not an option.
