Advocate hopes films will help preserve Bear River

By Liz Kellar | Staff Writer Local film maker Jeff Litton stands next to the Bear River at the Highway 174 bridge. Litton has made a handful of films focusing on education and awareness of the river that would be dammed if the Centennial project is realized. Elias Funez Jeff Litton is a man on a mission. Litton, a third-generation Nevada County resident, has made several films over the last few years that highlight the Bear River and efforts to preserve it from being dammed by the Centennial Reservoir project. “I grew up celebrating the beauty of all the great resources around us, and that included the Bear,” Litton said. “In the Boy Scouts, I learned to whitewater kayak the very stretch of the Bear River that would be flooded” by the Centennial Dam. “So I know a little bit about what’s at stake.”
