The Backcountry Film Festival premieres each year in Boise, Idaho. This year Jeremy Jones' Deeper: A Snowboard Adventure From The Unknown from Teton Gravity Research won Best of the Festival honors. Tonight's event, presented by the Colorado Mountain Club, features Deeper, Best Short Film winner Desert River and Best Environmental Film winner Whitebark Warrior (see trailers below).

Other films on tonight's program include TELEvision, Cross Country Snowboarding and Australis: An Antarctic Ski Odyssey from Aspen ski legend Chris Davenport.
