THE MEANINGLESS PURSUIT OF SNOW

In Conversation with Sweetgrass Productions on their new film, and their dedication to backcountry skiing, for Sidetracked Mag.

Patagonia’s new documentary The Meaningless Pursuit of Snow follows five characters from across the globe, each driven by the same love for ski and snowboard mountaineering. The feature offers a fresh perspective on snowsports, cutting through archaic representations to reveal the truth about those who venture up the mountain on foot – all for the blissful minutes of descent.

Snow forecasts, vast and remote areas, intimate interviews, and glimpsing into the quiet lives of wild individuals – we spoke to Nick Waggoner from Sweetgrass Productions to find out more about the making of this beautiful film.
