Patagonia and Sweetgrass Productions Present The Jumbo Wild Trailer
For nearly 25 years there have been rumblings and rumors about a four season destination mountain ski resort being developed in the Jumbo Valley of British Columbia’s Purcell Mountains. This decades long struggle over conservation and protection versus development and exploitation is now the focus of a new film produced by Patagonia and Sweetgrass Productions called Jumbo Wild. The full film will hit theaters in October 2015.
Should the Jumbo Valley be kept wild? Watch the trailer of Jumbo Wild featuring stunning footage of mountains, skiers, and nature at its finest. The film will portray both sides of this decades deep issue and hopefully raise awareness about Jumbo.
