In the mountains behind the sleepy coastal town of Powell River, BC, a small group of rock climbers has spent decades quietly pioneering routes on some of the largest granite walls in Canada. As the last stands of old-growth trees harboured in these valleys come under threat of logging, the climbing community faces the uncertain future of a place that has come to define their lives and legacies. Confronted with the decision to fight for these last ancient trees and potentially lose access or look away as the valley is stripped for timber, On The Verge is a snapshot of outdoors culture in British Columbia. The way we reconcile industries that give us access to the wilderness with the destruction they cause. The desire to protect our backyard but keep it for ourselves at the same time. The importance of these places to the people who have shaped them and been shaped by them in return. A WILDLAND MEDIA FILM

Summer always seems like a dream in the dark, wet winters of coastal BC. Riding becomes more forced, requires more determination. However, those that set out onto the lonely trails in cold winter rain find the forests of the Pacific Northwest as they should be experienced: lovely, dark, and deep. Bart Moore commissioned me to shoot this video for him, to express how things seem to change in the fall. Though the warm sunlight is gone, the beauty to be found in winter riding seems like a whole different world. Cinematography: Wildland Media Editing: Wildland Media
