PR Partner Press Release
Osprey announced the premiere of
Denizens of the Steep: Finding Balance in the Backcountry, which it co-sponsored.
The film presented by Orijin Media and co-sponsored by Fat Tire, the Teton Conservation District, Wyoming Game and Fish Department, and the Iowa and Wyoming Chapters of the Wildsheep Foundations, looks at the urgent conservation challenge facing the Teton Bighorn Sheep herd and how winter recreationalists can be part of the solution.
Denizens of the Steep follows renowned ski mountaineer Kim Havell as she explores and redefines what it means to be a backcountry skier. With more skiers venturing further into the backcountry due to rapidly evolving ski touring technology, habitat destruction, lost migration routes, and invasive species have reduced the Teton Bighorn Sheep herd to fewer than 100.
Of course, technology is playing a big role.
Residents of Belmont Village Senior Living in Lincoln Park can visit with relatives through the windows and using their phones to talk.
For those who aren t close enough to visit an elderly relative, many are leaning on technology this holiday season. I d never even heard of it and I must admit I was very nervous when it started, said Ana Merritt.
Merritt lives in Urbana and got help setting up her applications from Parasol Alliance technology experts at her senior living community. Now she sees her kids and grandkids every Sunday, and on holidays too.
