In order to move forward, sometimes looking at what was done in the past is a great way to be inspired. This year’s Homegrown Film Festival hopes to do just that so the mountain adventure community can reflect and, hopefully, be inspired by Bob Carmichael’s “Fall Line,” an Academy Award-winning documentary short that helped introduce extreme skiing in 1981.
The Homegrown Film Festival will run two shows at 4 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 30, at the Argyros Performing Arts Center in Ketchum.
The shows are a fundraiser for Friends of the Sawtooth Avalanche Center, which supports the Avalanche Center and their forecasters, who strive to keep people safe and aware throughout the winter with educational events and daily avalanche forecasts. Four SAC staff members go into the field to make their daily reports covering the Sawtooth Mountains, Smoky Mountains, Galena Summit, Soldier Mountains, mountains in the Wood River Valley and Banner Summit. They provide a free daily report at sawtoothavalanche.com/subscribe-avalanche-forecast.
