Want an Idea...

So for all of you climbers, skiers, and adventurers out there; I am sure you get asked on a regular basis what it is you do out in the wild mountain world.  Most of our friends have no real idea what it is we do, the hazards seem unreal and the consequences unacceptable.  People in general consider most of what goes on to be crazy, adrenaline junkie type of things.  I know for me it has always been tough to describe what it is I do, and more importantly why, to those that I care about.  If you are looking for a good movie that really explains why people are called into the mountains, I highly recommend Steep.  It is a documentary that came out a few years ago about the evolution of steep skiing.  The people in the movie are fully skiing bigger lines and in more serious terrain than most of us, but the sentiment is there.  Whether you love skiing, love the mountains, or know someone who does, you should check this movie out.
