The Beartooth Mountains of Montana are an incredible zone for backcountry skiing, ski mountaineering, climbing, hiking, and other activities. Here’s a very cool video by Beau Fredlund and KT Miller that takes a closer look ski mountaineering in this remote and relatively unknown zone – their backyard. With some impressive shots of famous couloirs, massive peaks, and stunning scenery, The Sleeping Giant is a short film that’s definitely worth watching.
