I'm going to do a little bit of name-dropping here: Klaus Obermeyer, Phil and Steve Mahre, Scot Schmidt, Warren Miller, Wayne Wong, Bode Miller, Spokane's.

As skiers, we’re motivated by our aspirations. For me, every fall meant heading to a local theater to catch that year’s Warren Miller film often narrated by Warren himself. Films inspire us. Whether or not you have CMH on your heli plan for the spring, ski films take us there in our minds.
In a season that’s like no other, we need to be ready for anything. So, for those days you may need to spend indoors for quarantine, welcome to the Quarantine Ski Film Festival.
What are the best ski films of all time? Certainly it’s in the eye of the beholder. But with the help of some of my Facebook friends, here are a few to think about next time you’re stuck at home for a couple days while it’s dumping outside. Let’s take some time to revisit old friends, and maybe meet a few new ones along the way.
