After becoming the first person to ski the Seven Summits, team athlete Kit DesLauriers found herself searching for purpose beyond herself. And through an epic adventure of athleticism, survival, and conservation, she found it. Beyond the Summit explores her two weeks of traversing the arctic on skis, telling the story of a diminishing snowpack in one of the most pristine wilderness areas in the world-the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.
Directed by Natasha Mynhier, Co-Directed by Nate Luebbe, Produced by Rachel Nederveld, Edited by Eli James, Score by Andy Marsh, Director of Photography: Fisher Creative, Production Company: 37Laines

One thing we don't focus on enough... are the wins for the climate and for our planet. While this feels like a small win, it's still a win to protect one of the most beautiful places on earth. Love the story telling, so well captured & felt super inspired after watching this.

@s.clairegreen9577 Жыл бұрын

I see your point, I really do. I hear you saying how we complain but are unwilling to let our consumption of oil go. And it's a valid point we all need to address within ourselves. But it's just one side, demand side. This film addresses the supply side. And I must say: CO2 releasing at this level with the destruction of the permafrost = too costly. No drilling here, not worth the expense to the planet and all species

How come, to me at least, it appears that the people who ski down the mountains have a better and safer time going to the summits, than many people have who are only going up and coming down the most common way?

@jenniferlynne3314 Жыл бұрын

It’s quicker to ski down and decreases the time on the mountain which means there is less of a window for anything to happen. Also, there is an intense amount of planning and preparation that goes into it. They don’t just get to the top and throw their skis on and take off. It takes several weeks to climb these mountains, and then entire time they are checking snow conditions, weather conditions and making sure their route down is as safe as possible. It also helps that most have decades of experience.

@Fehr270 Жыл бұрын

I’m a little conflicted, she spent most of her career jetting around to ski mountains and then she became concerned about the environment. I also agree we shouldn’t be drilling there and I do my part to fuel demand as well. Drilling in the arctic is a reaction to American president approval dropping every time gas prices go down. This will be harder to change. The arctic has one thing going for it. Getting oil from there is much more expensive than buying it from the Saudi’s.

@vanfja Жыл бұрын

Everyone always forgets this type of concern when their lifestyle or wallets are threatened. Look at Europe now, they are opening up nee coal plants and scrambling to drill in their arctic regions.

They are all amazingly talented, athletic people, no doubts there. But y'all VISIT Alaska in your airplane with all your gear made with oil, your gas stoves, etc, to try & stop oil & gas drilling in ANWR. Take a look at why Alaska has the cleanest, most environmentally friendly drilling fields in the world. Look at the wildlife that thrives along the pipeline. Let Alaskans decide how to do our thing. We live here cuz we love it & want to keep our environment beautiful while helping supply oil, gas & jobs to everyone, including Alaskans.

Awareness inspires introspection & how you can personally deduce your own footprint. They have the unique skill set and platform to bring this to more people and continue the conversation.

@Marissa North Been there done that. 3 ascents of Denali including a ski descent from the summit when these people were tadpoles. 18 years living in Alaska. Oil is the life blood of all alaska. The whole place is amazing not just the upper right corner. Sad to see outsiders or Cheechakos think they know about what's best for a state they don't live in.

@AndyGraumann1 Жыл бұрын

It doesnt count if you dont carry your skis to the summit yourself. Not in my book. There are plenty of clean ski descents from the 8000ers, but this aint one.
