We have been covering the ongoing drama with Jumbo Ski Resort, the planned ski resort in Canada that would 2x the size of Whistler. Now Sweetgrass Productions and Patagonia have teamed up to present an hour-long documentary film due out on October 12th.
“Patagonia presents Jumbo Wild – a gripping, hour-long documentary film by Sweetgrass Productions that tells the true story of the decades-long battle over the future of British Columbia’s iconic Jumbo Valley and highlights the tension between the protection of wilderness and the backcountry experience and ever-increasing development interests in wild places. Set against a backdrop of incredible backcountry ski and snowboard footage, Jumbo Wild documents all sides of a divisive issue bringing the passionate local fight to protect the Jumbo Valley to life for the first time.”
