The Avalanche Hunter (Adventure Short)

Logline: In this adventure vignette, we get a look behind the scenes into the often invisible world of avalanche control and avalanche professionals. The story follows Roz Reynolds, an “avalanche hunter” and certified badass, who is not only blazing trails in her field and keeping the public safe in the mountains, but also laying first tracks on backcountry slopes, on the USA Ice Climbing team, and more.

Runtime: 11.5 minutes

Directed by: Philip Hüffeldt

A project by Wool Hat Creative and Howl at the Sun, Inc.

A feature film concept about many different avalanche hunters and the world of avalanches and avalanche safety is in development. Please contact us for pitch deck and more information.

This film will screen over 100 times in 2022/2023 with the Backcountry Film Festival and the Les Bois Film Festival and is being considered for a number of other festivals. We are also excited to be part of a special International Women’s Day screening with Sun Valley Resort in Idaho. Learn even more about the project and how it was made here.
